Survey Reveals Law Professors' Concerns About Free Speech in Academia
A survey by the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE) reveals that many law professors support free speech but feel unable to express their views due to fear of retaliation.

The American Bar Association's new policy on academic freedom may not fully address these cultural issues.
