ݮƵAPP’s Robert Shibley Speaking at Appalachian State University This Evening
Students and ݮƵAPP supporters in the Boone, North Carolina, area are invited to hear ݮƵAPP Senior Vice President Robert Shibley speak at Appalachian State University (ASU) tonight at 7 p.m. in the Beacon Heights of Plemmons Student Union.
Robert’s talk is just one part of a series of free speech events at ASU led by Young Americans for Liberty ASU. In addition to attending Robert’s talk, ASU students will have the opportunity to participate in a Free Speech Wall set up on Sanford Mall, a student-led panel on free speech, and an Open Art Night, where an ASU philosophy professor will discuss free expression through the arts and censorship.
Torch readers will remember that ݮƵAPP intervened last year after ASU tenured professor Jammie Price was placed on administrative leave when students alleged that she had created a hostile environment. Appalachian State currently has a “yellow light” rating in ݮƵAPP’s Spotlight database.
