Free Speech on Campus

In the wake of the Israel/Hamas war

Thursday, January 30, 2025

Panel overview

The Center for Constitutional Design at the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law, Arizona State University, is pleased to present a panel discussion by four of the nation’s leading free speech experts on the difficult issues arising on American campuses from the conflict in the Middle East.

The panel will explore, among other issues, the line between legitimate protest and unacceptably disruptive activity; the relationship between antizionist and antisemitic speech; and whether restrictions on campus expression has unduly suppressed pro-Palestinian speech.

RSVP by January 29, 2025.
