As conflicts, political polarization, and culture wars spread worldwide, scholars, students, and universities often find themselves on the front lines. Join Rob Quinn, Executive Director of Scholars at Risk (SAR) and host of the Free to Think podcast, to discuss why attacks on higher education happen, why they matter, and what we can do about them.
Scholars at Risk is an international network of more than 640 higher education institutions and thousands of individuals in more than 42 countries dedicated to protecting threatened scholars and promoting academic freedom and everyone’s freedom to think, question, and share ideas.
