FIRE’s Adam Kissel to Speak at Penn State University This Thursday
Adam Kissel, director of FIRE's Individual Rights Defense Program, will be giving a talk at Pennsylvania State University this Thursday. He has been invited to speak by CFN member Thomas Shakely, and his lecture is sponsored by the PSU student group Safeguard Old State. Adam's free public lecture, "Liberty in Peril: Speech Codes on our Nation's College Campuses," will begin at 7:00 p.m. in Room 101 of the Thomas Building and will be followed by a question-and-answer period.
As always, I encourage any Torch readers in the area around State College to come out and join Adam as he explores the state of rights on today's campuses. Additionally, if you are a student or faculty member interested in hosting a lecture on your own campus, take a look at the "Speakers" section of the CFN website and submit a request through our online request form.
