What is academic freedom? And who polices its boundaries?
Our guests on today's show argue that the popular conception of academic freedom has become too closely connected with the concept of free speech.
Penn State Professor Michael Bérubé and Portland State Professor Jennifer Ruth are the authors of "It's Not Free Speech: Race, Democracy, and the Future of Academic Freedom."
