Good afternoon, everyone. I am the dean of the harvard graduate institute and is my pleasure to welcome all of you, whether you are joining us in person or online, to todays discussion on free speech on campus. We plan to this discussion some weeks ago, but i bet it has become an increasingly crucial conversation. Before i introduce those on todays program, allow me to express my gratitude to the Radcliffe Institute Leadership Society and our donors whose generosity keeps our program free and open to the public. I also want to thank todays distinguished speakers for sharing their expertise and perspectives, and i thank everyone who is joining us this afternoon for engaging in this critically important conversation. As i moved to an introduction of the substance of the program, i have a request for you. During this fraud period of understandably strong opinions and strong emotions, i ask that we engage with one another as generous listeners. With open minds and open hearts. Thank you in
