Six points about free speech at universities

1. For me, the law seems to be in about the right place on free speech issues.
This University has published a particularly good robust defence of free speech, but it ends by noting the rare instances where it can be legitimately limited, such as:

where people may be drawn into terrorism;
where the aim is inciting violence;
where there is a risk to the safety of other humans.

Others may take a less centrist positions, wanting either purer or more restricted free speech, but I am comfortable with the law as it is as it balances out some important things, including the safety of staff and students. More...

The ASU + GSV Conference was More GSV than Ever—And That’s Good

By Michael Feldstein. I've been struggling with how to characterize this year's ASU + GSV Summit. Part of the problem is that it's just become harder to sum up, for three reasons. First, the conference has gotten so big that it's hard to see enough of it to get a representative sample. Second, as it has become a "must attend" conference for certain circles, it becomes harder for me to clear time away from meetings with people I know—both planned and unplanned—to be a fly on the wall.
