Free Speech at 海角社区
“海角社区 is committed to empowering students to actively participate in and sustain the democratic process. Free expression and academic freedom are indispensable to fulfilling this mission.
I strongly believe that free expression and inquiry, which should flourish at universities, are key to maintaining a healthy civil society, and indeed our diverse democratic republic. This mission not only prepares individual students for active roles in society, but also serves the greater good by reinforcing and upholding the democratic values that promote a just and equitable society.
Together we can embrace our diversity while balancing free speech with the rights and safety of the entire campus community.”
