Free Speech, Viewpoint Diversity and Higher Education..... In this class, we will directly address questions surrounding viewpoint diversity. The course is built on two foundational premises. The first is that there is a lack of viewpoint diversity in higher education; recent survey data confirm this trend. The second assertion is that this lack of diversity damages the mission of higher education. Inherent in the definition of viewpoint diversity is the principle that there is a spectrum of perspectives ranging, politically speaking, from staunchly conservative on one end to radically progressive on the other – and that the voicing of perspectives falling along that spectrum without social penalty is integral to a healthy society.
