Free speech survey signals distrust and disconnection
Briefly

Fifty-five percent of college students say they find it difficult to discuss the Israeli-Palestinian conflict on campus, marking a significant increase from previous years.
The events of the past year, mainly since Oct. 7, have had a negative impact on students' perceptions of free speech, with many losing trust in their administration to defend their rights.
While self-censorship reports decreased nationally, students at campuses affected by protests felt more inclined to keep their opinions to themselves.
This dynamic is crucial for campus leaders, as it has real implications for policy changes and balancing competing interests regarding free speech.
