About this listen
Join us for Episode #2 of the Futures Initiative podcast, dropping November 18, as Faculty Chair Shelly Eversley sits down with Professor and journalist Moustafa Bayoumi and Distinguished Professor Michelle Fine for a vital conversation about academic freedom in our current moment.
At a time when what we say, what we teach, and what we study on college campuses faces unprecedented challenges, this episode explores why our classrooms must remain spaces where we can engage the deep and difficult subjects that shape our world. Our guests make a powerful case for why academic freedom isn't just an abstract principle—it's essential for the kind of education that prepares students to think critically and to navigate complexity.
We'll also dive into why universities should protect students' rights to peacefully protest and what's at stake when we restrict the free exchange of ideas on campus.
