On Sept. 26 at Cornell Law School, a conversation between First Amendment scholars Jameel Jaffer and Eugene Volokh headlines the universitywide theme year's first Milstein Symposium, presented by the Howard and Abby Milstein Foundation.
Cornell legal experts will review the fundamentals of free expression during a Sept. 7 panel discussion kicking off the university’s theme year, “The Indispensable Condition: Freedom of Expression at Cornell.”
On Wednesday night, Cornell University the number one ranked school in New York, an Ivy League institution, a self-avowed destination for “any person, any study” could have proved that it is a genuine marketplace of ideas. That did not happen. Credit is due to the Leadership Institute, Network of enlightened Women and Ann Coulter ’84 herself for working to make the event a reality. Because of everyone involved in allowing Coulter to speak, Cornellians had a unique opportunity to be challenged, learn and grow. None of that happened either.
