Notes 1-5 are distinct; no significant threads developed  during this first
week of classes at most schools. It looks like most of us were busy with
other things! 

1. On Freedom of Expression and Campus Speech Codes. "This is a policy
statement from the American association of University Professors. The
statement was endorsed by AAUP's Committee on Academic Freedom and Tenure
and by its Council at their meetings in June 1992."
    <1992Sep1.232150.23045@eff.org>

2. "Women Against Censorship" is a collection of essays by feminists
opposed to censorship and certain antipornography movements. Excerpts here
discuss antipornography law, its effect on the feminist movement, its
potential for polarizing feminists against one another, and the
relationship between civil liberties and feminism.
    <2519@bsu-cs.bsu.edu>

3. This is a reposting from ClariNet of a UPI article concerning censorship
in the classroom. People for the American Way, a civil liberties group,
reports that censorship or challenges of textbooks, classic novels, and
other materials are at their highest levels in 10 years of surveys. Censors
appear to be more successful now than at any time in the past four years.
The most frequent rationales for challenges were that the materials were
Satanic, New Age, or anti-Christian. Objectionable language and offensive
sexuality were the next most frequent rationales.

4. Carl Kadie updates us on recent changes to the CAF Archive, where
information on computers and academic freedom is kept. Material includes
back issues of the CAF newsgroup discussions and CAF-News digests, book
reviews, legislators' addresses, frequently asked questions on a number of
topics, reports on laws and litigation, and more.
    <1992Sep2.210144.8139@eff.org>

5. Not so much because it's pertinent to computers and academic freedom,
but because there's room this issue for it, here is a recent edition of
John December's wonderfully useful list of Internet information resources
and services. A browse through it will tell you where to look for: the
electronic texts of books on networking; electronic journals and
newsletters; Gopher and WAIS services; BBS lists; e-mail addresses; network
etiquette; weather maps; and much more. It's the Swiss Army knife of
Internet information!

On Freedom of Expression and Campus Speech Codes

Freedom of thought and expression is essential to any institution of
higher learning. Universities and colleges exist not only to transmit
existing knowledge.  Equally, they interpret, explore, and expand that
knowledge by testing the old and proposing the new.

This mission guides learning outside the classroom quite as much as in
class, and often inspires vigorous debate on those social, economic,
and political issues that arouse the strongest passions. In the
process, views will be expressed that may seem to many wrong,
distasteful, or offensive. Such is the nature of freedom to sift and
winnow ideas.

On a campus that is free and open, no idea can be banned or forbidden.
No viewpoint or message may be deemed so hateful or disturbing that it
may not be expressed.

Universities and colleges are also communities, often of a residential
character. Most campuses have recently sought to become more diverse,
and more reflective of the larger community, by attracting students,
faculty, and staff from groups that were historically excluded or
underrepresented. Such gains as they have made are recent, modest, and
tenuous. The campus climate can profoundly affect an institution's
continued diversity. Hostility or intolerance to persons who differ
from the majority (especially if seemingly condoned by the
institution) may undermine the confidence of new members of the
community. Civility is always fragile and can easily be destroyed.

In response to verbal assaults and use of hateful language some
campuses have felt it necessary to forbid the expression of racist,
sexist, homophobic, or ethnically demeaning speech, along with conduct
or behavior that harasses. Several reasons are offered in support of
banning such expression. Individuals and groups that have been victims
of such expression feel an understandable outrage. They claim that the
academic progress of minority and majority alike may suffer if fears,
tensions, and conflicts spawned by slurs and insults create an
environment inimical to learning.  These arguments, grounded in the
need to foster an atmosphere respectful of and welcome to all persons,
strike a deeply responsive chord in the academy. But, while we can
acknowledge both the weight of these concerns and the thoughtfulness
of those persuaded of the need for regulation, rules that ban or
punish speech based upon its content cannot be justified. An
institution of higher learning fails to fulfill its mission if it
asserts the power to proscribe ideas -- and racial or ethnic slurs,
sexist epithets, or homophobic insults almost always express ideas,
however repugnant. Indeed, by proscribing any ideas, a university sets
an example that profoundly disserves its academic mission.  Some may
seek to defend a distinction between the regulation of the content of
speech and the regulation of the manner (or style) of speech. We find
this distinction untenable in practice because offensive style or
opprobrious phrases may in fact have been chosen precisely for their
expressive power. As the United States Supreme Court has said in the
course of rejecting criminal sanctions for offensive words: [W]ords
are often chosen as much for their emotive as their cognitive force.
We cannot sanction the view that the Constitution, while solicitous of
the cognitive content of individual speech, has little or no regard
for that emotive function which, practically speaking, may often be
the more important element of the overall message sought to be
communicated.  The line between substance and style is thus too
uncertain to sustain the pressure that will inevitably be brought to
bear upon disciplinary rules that attempt to regulate speech.
Proponents of speech codes sometimes reply that the value of emotive
language of this type is of such a low order that, on balance,
suppression is justified by the harm suffered by those who are
directly affected, and by the general damage done to the learning
environment.  Yet a college or university sets a perilous course if it
seeks to differentiate between high-value and low-value speech, or to
choose which groups are to be protected by curbing the speech of
others. A speech code unavoidably implies an institutional competence
to distinguish permissible expression of hateful thought from what is
proscribed as thoughtless hate.  Institutions would also have to
justify shielding some, but not other, targets of offensive language
-- not to political preference, to religious but not to philosophical
creed, or perhaps even to some but not to other religious
affiliations. Starting down this path creates an even greater risk
that groups not originally protected may later demand similar
solicitude -- demands the institution that began the process of
banning some speech is ill equipped to resist.

Distinctions of this type are neither practicable nor principled;
their very fragility underscores why institutions devoted to freedom
of thought and expression ought not adopt an institutionalized
coercion of silence.

Moreover, banning speech often avoids consideration of means more
compatible with the mission of an academic institution by which to
deal with incivility, intolerance, offensive speech, and harassing
behavior:

(l) Institutions should adopt and invoke a range of measures that
penalize conduct and behavior, rather than speech, such as rules
against defacing property, physical intimidation or harassment, or
disruption of campus activities. All members of the campus community
should be made aware of such rules, and administrators should be ready
to use them in preference to speech-directed sanctions.

(2) Colleges and universities should stress the means they use best --
to educate -- including the development of courses and other
curricular and co-curricular experiences designed to increase student
understanding and to deter offensive or intolerant speech or conduct.
Such institutions should, of course, be free (indeed en and
discrimination, whether physical or verbal.

(3) The governing board and the administration have a special duty not
only to set an outstanding example of tolerance, but also to challenge
boldly and condemn immediately serious breaches of civility.

(4) Members of the faculty, too, have a major role; their voices may
be critical in condemning intolerance, and their actions may set
examples for understanding, making clear to their students that
civility and tolerance are hallmarks of educated men and women.

(5) Student personnel administrators have in some ways the most
demanding role of all, for hate speech occurs most often in
dormitories, locker-rooms, cafeterias, and student centers. Persons
who guide this part of campus life should set high standards of their
own for tolerance and should make unmistakably clear the harm that
uncivil or intolerant speech inflicts.

To some persons who support speech codes, measures like these --
relying as they do on suasion rather than sanctions -- may seem
inadequate. But freedom of expression requires toleration of "ideas we
hate," as Justice Holmes put it. The underlying principle does not
change because the demand is to silence a hateful speaker, or because
it comes from within the academy.  Free speech is not simply an aspect
of the educational enterprise to be weighed against other desirable
ends.  It is the very precondition of the academic enterprise itself.

Subject: Article 2--Excerpts from women against censorship
Date: 31 Aug 92 05:40:32 GMT

Since I quoted a portion of the book _Women_Against_Censorship_ in my 
preceding post, I wanted to take a moment to say something about the book
and enter a couple more excerpts from it.

The book is a collection of essays by various feminists who are opposed to
censorship and to the anti-pornography movement represented by Andrea
Dworkin and Catherine MacKinnon.  The women who have contributed essays
to the book have in common only their devotion to feminism and their
opposition to censorship.  They state reasons for opposition which
come from several different viewpoints.  If you have an interest in
opposing the public control of ideas, in whatever form it might take,
I highly recommend the book.

_Women_Against_Censorship_
Edited by Varda Burstyn
Douglas & McIntyre Limited, 1985
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Excerpt 1--
   From "False Promises:  Feminist Anti-Pornography Legislation in
   the U.S.A." by Lisa Duggan, Nan Hunter, and Carole S. Vance
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
[page 130]
     In the United States, after two decades of increasing community 
tolerance for dissenting or disturbing sexual or political materials,
there is now growing momentum for retrenchment.  In an atmosphere of
increased conservatism, evidenced by a wave of book-banning and anti-
gay harassment, support for new repressive legislation of various
kinds -- from an Oklahoma law forbidding schoolteachers from advocating
homosexuality to new anti-pornography laws passed in Minneapolis and 
Indianapolis -- is growing.
     The anti-pornography laws have mixed roots of support, however.
though they are popular with the conservative constituencies that 
traditionally favor legal restrictions on sexual expression of all
kinds, they were drafted and are endorsed by antipornography feminists
who oppose traditional obscenity and censorship laws.  The model law
of this type, which is now being widely copied, was drawn up in the
politically progressive city of Minneapolis by two radical feminists,
author Andrea Dworkin and attorney Catherine MacKinnon.  It was passed
by the city council there, but vetoed by the mayor.  A similar law
was also passed in Indianapolis, but later declared unconstitutional
in federal court, a ruling that the city will appeal.  Other versions
of the legislation are being considered in numerous cities, and 
Pennsylvania senator Arlen Spector has introduced legislation modeled
on parts of the Dworkin-MacKinnon bill in the U.S. Congress.
     Dworkin, MacKinnon and their feminist supporters believe that
the new antipornography laws are not censorship laws.  They also 
claim that the legislative effort behind them is based on feminist
support.  Both of these claims are dubious at best.  Though the new
laws are civil laws that allow individuals to sue the makers, sellers,
distributors or exhibitors of pornography, and not criminal laws
leading to arrest and imprisonment, their censoring impact would be
substantially as severe as criminal obscenity laws.  Materials could be
removed from public availability by court injunction, and publishers
and booksellers could be subject to potentially endless legal
harassment.  Passage of the laws was therefore acheived with the 
support of right-wing elements who expect the new laws to accomplish
what many censorship efforts are meant to accomplish.  Ironically,
many antifeminist conservatives backed these laws, while many feminists
opposed them.  In Indianapolis, the law was supported by extreme right
wing religious fundamentalists, including members of the Moral Majority,
while there was _no_ local feminist support.  In other cities, tra-
ditional procensorship forces have expressed interest in the new approach to
banning sexually explicit materials.  Meanwhile, anticensorship 
feminists have become alarmed at these new developments, and are
seeking to galvanize feminist opposition to the new antipornography
legislative strategy pioneered in Minneapolis.
     One is tempted to ask, how can this be happening?  How can feminists
be entrusting the patriarchal state with the task of legally dis-
tinguishing between permissible and impermissible sexual images?
But in fact this new development is not as surprising as it first
seems.  For the reasons explored by Ann Snitow (see page 107),
pornography has come to be seen as a central cause of women's
oppression by a significant number of feminists.  Some even argue
that pornography is the root of virtually all forms of exploitation
and discrimination against women.  But this analysis takes feminists
very close -- indeed far too close -- to measures that will ultimately
support conservative, anti-sex, procensorship forces in American
society, for it is with these forces that women have forged alliances
in passing such legislation.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
[page 147]
     The consequences of enforcing such a law, however, are much more
likely to obstruct than advance feminist political goals.  On the 
level of ideas, further narrowing of the public realm of sexual
speech coincides all too well with the privatization of sexual,
reproductive, and family issues sought by the far right -- an 
agenda described very well for example, by Rosalind Petchesky in
"The Rise of the New Right" in _Abortion_and_Woman's_Choice_.
Practically speaking, the ordinances could result in attempts to
eliminate the images associated with homosexuality.  Doubtless 
there are heterosexual women who believe that lesbianism is a
"degrading" form of "subordination."  Since the ordinances allow
for suits against materials in which men appear "in place of women,"
far right antipornography crusaders could use these laws to suppress
gay male pornography.  Imagine a Jerry Falwell-style conservative
filing a complaint against a gay bookstore for selling sexually
explicit materials showing men with other men in "degrading" or
"submissive" or "objectified" postures -- all in the name of pro-
tecting women.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Excerpt 2--
   From "Feminist Debates and Civil Liberties" by June Callwood
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
[page 122]
     My personal experiences around the issue of pornography and
censorship mirror those of thousands of women in this country who
have become estranged from feminist colleagues and even from close
friends.  What alarms me most is that this polarity might well cripple
our efforts to work together in the future on such common --
and vital -- causes as day care, reproductive rights, equal pay
for work of equal value and adequate pensions for women.  As lawyer
Mary Eberts once said, "Pornography is our Skokie."  Just as the
American Civil Liberties Union's controversial decision to support the
rights of self-styled Nazis to demonstrate in Skokie, Illinois, in
1977 divided that organization, so the pornography debate is splitting
the women's movement into separate, often hostile, camps.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
[page 129]
     Mistrust of civil liberties reveals a lack of historical
perspective.  The freedom of dissent enjoyed by today's feminists
owes everything to the civil liberties groups who 30 years ago
fought for the right of marginal organizations to disagree with the
majority.  It was a civil liberties organization that sought to make
covenants on the sale of land to Jews illegal.  It was a civil 
liberties group that in 1965 fought a Toronto bylaw that would have
allowed police to censor placards in demonstrations.  Today, it
is the Canadian Civil Liberties Association that protests such 
draconian welfare laws as the man-in-the-house rule and campaigns
against inequities in the country's abortion laws.
     ...
     Feminism and civil liberties are inextricable.  The goal of
both is a society in which individuals are treated justly.  Civil
libertarians who oppose censorship are fighting on behalf of
feminists, not against them.

	WASHINGTON (UPI) -- Censorship or challenges of textbooks, classic
novels, and other materials frequently used in public school classrooms
was at its highest level in 10 years of surveys of the practices, a
public education watchdog group reported Tuesday.
	People for the American Way, which describes itself as a 300,000
member non-partisan constitutional liberties organization, reported that
``censors'' were more active in 1991-92 than in any other year, with 376
``attacks on the freedom to learn'' in 44 states.
	It said challenges to library materials -- books that no child is
required to read -- rose to 173, compared with 72 during the 1990-91
school year.
	``The censors' success rate was disturbingly high, higher in fact
than at any point in the last four years,'' the group said. ``Forty-one
percent of the materials challenged were removed or restricted in some
fashion.''
	The group said its 10th annual survey found that the most challenges
to textbooks and other materials were from Florida, 34; Texas, 27;
California, 27; Oregon, 24; and Minnesota, 22. There were no challenges
in Arkansas, Kentucky, North Dakota, New Mexico, Rhode Island, and
Vermont and the District of Columbia.
	The group said the most frequently challenged books during 1991-92
school year included Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck; More Scary
Stories to Tell in the Dark by Alvin Schwartz; The Catcher in the Rye by
J.D. Salinger; and The Chocolate War by Robert Cormier.
	The most frequently challenged materials were Pumsy: In Pursuit of
Excellence; Impressions; Quest; Positive Action; and DUSO (Developing
Understanding of Self and Others).
	``More than one-fifth of all incidents were the handiwork of
extremist conservative groups or individuals at the national or local
level,'' People for the American Way reported.
	``And even in incidents where no such links were readily apparent,
similarities in targets and rhetoric recurred, suggesting that a
decade's worth of exhortation from national leaders has given birth to
an active, self-generating censorship movement.
	``The most frequent rationale for challenges was that materials were
perceived to be at odds with the challengers' religious views. Such
materials, including classic novels, were frequently labeled 'Satanic,
New Age, or anti-Christian.'
	``Second most common were challenges in which the materials were
deemed to be profane or to contain otherwise objectionable language;
third were those in which treatment of sexuality was found offensive.''
	Some examples of censorship or challenges listed by the organization:
	--Jacksonville, Fla.: Objectors brought 20 challenges, including
criticisms on Maurice Sendak's, In the Night Kitchen, and John
Knowles's, A Separate Peace. In more than half of the challenges, books
were either removed or restricted.
	--Merritt Island, Fla.: Objectors alleged that portions of a
calisthenics warm-up videotape called ``Stretch to Win'' were ``like
yoga,'' promoted meditation and ``out of body experiences.'' The video
was retained but the children of the objectors were given alternative
materials.
	--Meridian, Idaho: A group objected to a nurse's presentation on HIV
and AIDS to a middle school class, raising false allegations, the
organization reported. ``District officials issued a gag order
prohibiting district employees from teaching students anything related
to sex education or HIV-AIDS,'' the watchdog group said. ``Student
editors of the high school newspaper were prohibited by school officials
>from publishing a story on the controversy.''
	Buffalo Grove, Ill.: School officials reacted to a student's story
about an illegal abortion by permanently shutting down the school's
literary magazine.
	--Sidell, Ill.: A student who objected to reading The Catcher in the
Rye was given another book assignment, but some ministers still sought
to remove the book from a 12th grade English class. The book was
retained, but the English department was told to consider a less
controversial book.
	--Slidell, La.: The book Voodoo and Hoodoo was characterized as
contributing to extreme anti-social behavior and unsanitary practices,
and the school board banned it from the schools.
	--Hillsville, Va.: School district officials, under pressure from a
minister, barred the district's Teach of the Year from using a novel,
The Floatplane Notebooks, in an 11th grade literature class. The book
was removed from the 11th grade class, but retained for the 12th grade.
