Episode 62: Campus Protests and the Rights to Free Speech and Assembly

College students are protesting on campuses across the nation against Israel and the war in Gaza. What started at Columbia University and other Ivy League schools has spread to over 70 schools. Students have even broken into and occupied buildings after first setting up tent encampments on the school grounds. Hundreds of students have already been arrested, and other students are preparing for clashes with police.

In this week's episode, our legal team addresses these campus protests in relation to the First Amendment's rights to free speech, freedom of the press, and freedom of assembly. What rights do college students have to protest on campus? Can they set up tent encampments? Can they occupy buildings? Is there a difference between public and private schools?

Learn what rights and limits students have through the First Amendment to protest wars, as we walk back through the Vietnam War campus protests, during which students were killed, and Supreme Court cases dealing with arm bands and other rights to demonstrative speech.

Grab a glass of wine or your favorite drink and spend the week with co-hosts Virginia Tehrani, Esq., Chelsey Rogers, Esq., and Dr. John Vile, as they break down the students' rights to protest the war in Gaza and their Constitutional rights of free speech and free assembly.
