Deplatforming Campus Speakers is Censorship!

In this episode of Radio Free Campus, co-hosts Steve McGuire and Justin Garrison analyze an argument from a Harvard Law Professor claiming efforts to deplatform invited campus speakers are not always censorship, but could be . . . "pre-emptive protest"? The podcast hosts also discuss the results of ACTA's Ohio Report Card, a study of policies and student perspectives on the free expression climates at Ohio State, Kent State, Miami, Cincinnati, and OHIO. Steve and Justin also announce UC Davis Law School as this episode's "Hero of the People" and a UCLA professor as RFC's "Apparatchik of the Month."
