April 11, 2014

FIRE President Greg Lukianoff will be a guest on FOX News’ Fox & Friends this Saturday morning to discuss the ongoing controversy surrounding Brandeis University’s reversal of its decision to grant women’s rights activist Ayaan Hirsi Ali an honorary degree. Greg is scheduled to join the program around 7:45 a.m. tomorrow morning, so be sure to tune in!

In the meantime, check out Samantha Harris’ commentary on Brandeis’ decision here on The Torch earlier this week, as well as what Hirsi Ali would have said if she had been allowed to address Brandeis’ class of 2014 at their commencement as planned.
