Will Creeley to Speak at Montclair State University on Tuesday
FIRE's Director of Legal and Public Advocacy, Will Creeley, will be speaking at Montclair State University on Tuesday night. His free public lecture, "Liberty in Peril: Speech Codes on Campus," will start at 7:00 p.m. in the MSU Student Center. The lecture is sponsored by the CHANGE Collegian Network at Montclair State University. I encourage any FIRE friends in the New Jersey area to come out to Will's lecture.
