Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can free speech coexist with an inclusive campus environment? Hardly a week goes by without another controversy over free speech on college campuses. On one side, there are increased demands to censor hateful, disrespectful, and bullying expression and to ensure an inclusive and nondiscriminatory learning environment. On the other side are traditional free speech advocates who charge that recent demands for censorship coddle students and threaten free inquiry. In this clear and carefully reasoned book, a university chancellor and a law school dean—both constitutional scholars who teach a course in free speech to undergraduates—argue that campuses must provide supportive learning environments for an increasingly diverse student body but can never restrict the expression of ideas. This book provides the background necessary to understanding the importance of free speech on campus and offers clear prescriptions for what colleges can and can’t do when dealing with free speech controversies.

Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller • Finalist for the 2018 National Book Critics Circle Award in Nonfiction • A New York Times Notable Book • Bloomberg Best Book of 2018 “Their distinctive contribution to the higher-education debate is to meet safetyism on its own, psychological turf . . . Lukianoff and Haidt tell us that safetyism undermines the freedom of inquiry and speech that are indispensable to universities.” —Jonathan Marks, Commentary “The remedies the book outlines should be considered on college campuses, among parents of current and future students, and by anyone longing for a more sane society.” —Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Something has been going wrong on many college campuses in the last few years. Speakers are shouted down. Students and professors say they are walking on eggshells and are afraid to speak honestly. Rates of anxiety, depression, and suicide are rising—on campus as well as nationally. How did this happen? First Amendment expert Greg Lukianoff and social psychologist Jonathan Haidt show how the new problems on campus have their origins in three terrible ideas that have become increasingly woven into American childhood and education: What doesn’t kill you makes you weaker; always trust your feelings; and life is a battle between good people and evil people. These three Great Untruths contradict basic psychological principles about well-being and ancient wisdom from many cultures. Embracing these untruths—and the resulting culture of safetyism—interferes with young people’s social, emotional, and intellectual development. It makes it harder for them to become autonomous adults who are able to navigate the bumpy road of life. Lukianoff and Haidt investigate the many social trends that have intersected to promote the spread of these untruths. They explore changes in childhood such as the rise of fearful parenting, the decline of unsupervised, child-directed play, and the new world of social media that has engulfed teenagers in the last decade. They examine changes on campus, including the corporatization of universities and the emergence of new ideas about identity and justice. They situate the conflicts on campus within the context of America’s rapidly rising political polarization and dysfunction. This is a book for anyone who is confused by what is happening on college campuses today, or has children, or is concerned about the growing inability of Americans to live, work, and cooperate across party lines.

Book excerpt: This study sought to increase understanding of student and administrator perceptions of student protests. Much has been written about the actions taken by students in forms of protest at Universities. Likewise there have been numerous looks at the various ways in which university administrators have responded to these protests. However, little research has been done to compare and contrast the perceptions of students and administrators as to what constitutes effective responses when protests are initiated, nor has much literature appeared on what both students and administrators see as the goals of student protests. More specifically, the purpose of this study was to understand three things. The first question was 1) what are student protesters', at three University of California campuses, definition of effective administrator responses to student protests? What actions and behaviors do students note as effective and ineffective? The second question was 2) what are selected key administrators' at three University of California campuses, perceptions of effective responses and goals to student protests? What lessons have administrators learned with regard to their part in responding to student protests? The final question was 3) how are student protesters' and key administrators' perceptions of effective responses to student protest the same or different? Student activists and upper level administrators at three University of California schools were interviewed. Data were collected utilizing qualitative methodology, specifically semi-structured interviews. Eight administrators and 15 student activists total were interviewed. Efforts were made to identify key administrators on each campus who were charged with responding to student protests. Likewise, students who participated in one or more of these protests were interviewed on each campus to gather their perceptions. Results included a number of key findings. Both students and administrators felt that communication, listening, and safety were key components to effective responses to protests. Although both groups agreed these were important components, their definitions and perceptions of the degree of each other's priorities varied. Administrators felt they were communicating, listening and maintaining safety. However often student activists did not agree. Students desired more transparency from administrators in order to understand how they could contribute to making change within their institution. Administrators were concerned about the continuity of campus operations during protests, a concern that was not a primary priority of the students. Some of the tools administrators utilized while working with student protesters were relationship building, knowledge of student development theory, trust, and patience. Students felt administrators needed more diversity training and understanding of students' experiences, as well as conflict mediation skills. Students felt these skills would enhance the interactions they had with administrators. By further understanding each other's perceptions and definitions of effectiveness, it is hoped that the results of this study will inform both students and administrators so that protests and other forms of student speech and communication can be part of the effective dialog of a vibrant university. The study includes recommendations for contributing to this greater understanding.
