Sometimes being a public scholar can be risky, especially if the scholarship is considered to be 鈥渃ontroversial鈥 or 鈥減olitical.鈥 Faculty can face backlash against themselves and their work. The campus can receive complaints about scholars鈥 views. Campus leaders are keen to support our baby直播app personally and professionally and uphold the tenets of academic freedom.
What should baby直播app members do when they face public backlash due to their public scholarship? What do baby直播app need to know about academic freedom? How should baby直播app be sharing their work publicly? Will campus leaders support baby直播app as public scholars?
This virtual panel discussion will address these questions and more. Panelists include campus leaders, legal experts, communications experts and baby直播app-public scholars sharing their experiences and expertise:
- Lolita Buckner Inniss, dean, baby直播app Law
- Jennifer Ho, director, Center for Humanities and the Arts
