HERO OF INTELLECTUAL FREEDOM   |  October 21, 2022 by Erec Smith

Following panels focused on how diversity, equity, and inclusion policies can threaten academic freedom and stifle the free exchange of ideas, ACTA presented Erec Smith with our 2022 Hero of Intellectual Freedom award.

ACTA’s Paul & Karen Levy Fellow in Campus Freedom, Steve McGuire, provides the welcoming tribute.
