Our suggestions include: language to constitutionally define harassment on college campuses; legislation to prohibit universities from demanding access to student and faculty private social media or email accounts; Legislation requiring universities to submit information to the Dept. of Education regarding their policies and how they effect free speech on campus, and legislation defining open areas on public universities as traditional public forums. FIRE also drafted a coalition letter sent to the Department of Education and the Department of Justice criticizing the settlement agreement the two agencies entered into with the University of Montana on May 9, 2013. The letter was not finalized and sent until the third quarter. | Education, Dept of,HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,Justice, Dept of (DOJ),SENATE | 10000 | 0 | 0 | 2013-07-22T16:50:26.963000-04:00 |
