"""The Chicago Canon on Free Inquiry and Expression is a thorough and thought-provoking history of free expression at the University of Chicago.  While the compendium documents the centrality of free expression from its founding to the present day, it is far more than static and documentary. Rather, this dynamic and evolving treatise provides a theoretical approach to free expression on college campuses today and clarifies the responsibility of the academy to encourage and stimulate the life of the mind and its courageous expression in all its many forms.""   -- Roslyn Clark Artis, President of Benedict College ""This inspiring collection of carefully reasoned and eloquently phrased writings is a must-read for all members of all academic communities and for everyone else who is interested in the timeless and timely topics of academic freedom and free speech. The volume is a treasure trove of pertinent materials, each with enlightening introductory annotations. An unwavering commitment to open inquiry infuses the whole compendium, and The Chicago Canon invites reading, discussion, and debate on every campus that is—or should be—pursuing and implementing its own policies and practices to promote intellectual freedom.""   -- Nadine Strassen, author of Free Speech: What Everyone Needs to Know®"
