Government Intrusion, Free Speech, and Academic Freedom: Dangerous Professors in the Hoosier State

About this event

Join BSU Professor Emeritus George Wolfe for a timely and urgent reflection on the escalating threats to academic freedom in the United States.

Drawing parallels between the ideological attacks of 2004—when peace and women’s studies programs were targeted by private commentators—and today’s government-led efforts to suppress critical inquiry, Wolfe examines how federal interference in university governance, curriculum, and student expression is reshaping higher education. With funding cuts, visa restrictions, and punitive measures against dissenting voices, this presentation invites a vital conversation on preserving intellectual independence in an era of political overreach.
