flag Seventy UF faculty protest new neutrality policy limiting public commentary on social issues.

flag Seventy retired University of Florida faculty attended a Jan. 21, 2026, session on the school’s new institutional neutrality policy, which restricts university leaders from publicly commenting on political or social issues. flag Led by constitutional law scholar Lyrissa Lidsky, the discussion highlighted concerns that the policy, intended to preserve institutional integrity, may chill free speech and academic engagement. flag While Lidsky emphasized that individual expression remains protected under the First Amendment, critics warn vague language could discourage public discourse and undermine academic freedom. flag The policy’s impact is being closely watched amid national debates over higher education’s role in public debate.
