For another interesting ranking, we have the FIRE college ranking of free speech.

| It is so depressing that so few students and administrators care about free speech. I fear for our nation. |

| Another useful tool. Choose one of these colleges and enough already about the compact and all the other nonsense. |

I love that organization and what it stands for!
BTW - FIRE’s most recent actions, by far, have been defending: - students’ rights on campus to protest the genocide in Gaza. |

the highest grade they gave anyone is B- so basically they're all bad according to this.
in the past, some colleges would get As or A-s. |

| Makes sense. My white son was rejected by 2 schools in the bottom 10 and is happily attending one in the top 10. |

It’s not a serious concern. It’s mostly evoked when conservatives feel they aren’t heard enough- as if they don’t control the house, the senate, the presidency, and the judiciary. |

| What a bizarre bunch in that top 10 |

| Yep, this is spot on. My college, Occidental, got an F. That is correct. Student pools rank it in the bottom 25 for “Political Tolerance,” indicating student reluctance to welcome speakers with opposing viewpoints. |

According to FIRE, all the schools suck for free speech right now. Even the top ten were rated B- to Cs.
Who cares what they think anyway? |
