FIRE
FIRE stands for Foundation for Individual Rights in Education.
The mission of FIRE is to defend and sustain individual rights at America's colleges and universities. These rights include freedom of speech, legal equality, due process, religious liberty, and sanctity of conscience -- the essential qualities of individual liberty and dignity. FIRE's core mission is to protect the unprotected and to educate the public and communities of concerned Americans about the threats to these rights on our campuses and about the means to preserve them.

Free speech and free inquiry is the basis of true academic freedom and the development of learning. Curtailing free speech is blindsiding your education in the name of ideology. Don't let them shortchange you!
