Legal Director of the ACLU of North Carolina Kristi Graunke argues that UNC leadership needs to improve its protections for freedom of speech for faculty and students. Graunke argues that pressures from the General Assembly and federal government have gone too far. She also mentions the University’s investigation into Professor Dwayne Dixon and is critical of UNC’s treatment of anti-Israel protesters.
