WHAT: “The Unsocial Network: How Administrators Hijack the College Experience”
Expert Panel to Discuss Higher Education Administration at National Press Club
WHY: In recent years, higher education bureaucrats have spent precious little time focused on academics and admissions standards. Instead, they’ve aimed at college students’ very adulthood and autonomy, hoping to strip their fundamental rights, like free speech, due process, and free association. This panel of scholars, legal experts, and journalists will examine how an ever-growing administrative state at American colleges and universities threatens students’ happiness, well-being, and future success. They will discuss assaults on free speech, due process, and free association at institutions across the U.S. while delving deeper into recent crises plaguing Stanford University.
WHERE: Livestreaming via GoACTA’s YouTube channel:
