12 p.m. – 1 p.m.
Salomon 202
On a liberal campus like Brown, the concept of freedom of speech and the questions of why, when, or how free speech can be limited is a very divisive issue. Are the ideas of safe space and free speech mutually exclusive? Do safe spaces negatively affect diversity of opinions on campus and students' intellectual growth? How are these issues addressed in campus media and public discourse?
We have invited two greatly accomplished student speakers to come and share their opinions on free speech and safe spaces at Brown. Join us for lunch and discussion on Thursday, October 26th, from 12-1pm at Salomon 202.
