Watch FIRE on 'Stossel' This Week
FIRE President Greg Lukianoff appears on ‘Stossel' this week to discuss free speech on campus. The show also features students from FIRE's cases at Auburn University, which selectively ordered a student's Ron Paul banner to be taken down despite leaving many others on display, and the University of Cincinnati, which threatened to arrest students if they tried to gather petition signatures outside the university's tiny "free speech zone." The episode first airs Thursday evening at 9 pm Eastern on Fox Business Network. Tune in!
