First Post

This is the first post for the College Freedom blog, which will focus on academic freedom and perhaps a few other issues related to higher education. This blog is an outgrowth of my website on academic freedom, http://www.collegefreedom.org. I'll be posting a new report on the state of academic freedom 2002-03 later this month at the website.
