Over 100 Harvard professors and staff stand up for free speech with new council: 'We are in a crisis time'

Over 100 Harvard professors have added their names to the school’s new Council on Academic Freedom in an attempt to defend free speech in one of America’s most famous schools. 

"We are in a crisis time right now," Janet Halley, a Harvard Law School professor and feminist legal theory scholar, told The New York Post. 

"Many, many people are being threatened with — and actually put through — disciplinary processes for their exercise of free speech and academic freedom," Halley said.
