Support FREE speech on campus!
TheFire.org is well known for keeping track of “Speech Codes” for over 350 colleges and universities nation wide. This is to let others know about freedom of speech violating codes of conduct at certain campuses in the U.S.
With today?s introduction of FIRE?s Speech Code Widget, anyone with a blog or website can help promote change at the school of his or her choice. If you send us a link to your site with the widget posted on it and your mail address, we?ll send you a free FIRE t-shirt as well! If you?re a student, professor, or alumnus of one of the 350 universities rated by Spotlight (odds are good you are), and you?re bothered by the fact that your institution might be censoring expression, this widget is for you?and it?s as easy to add to your site as a YouTube video would be.
The Widget
This widget is very basic. It contains a link for more information about the specific school as well as all the other schools on the list.
This is a JavaScript widget that is designed for sidebar placement. I’m sure it would be OK if you placed it in a post as well.
Opinion
This is a very worthy cause! I will always support free speech no matter what the cost. You should too!
I hope they have a lot of T-shirts!
