Nurturing Free Speech and Respectful Dialogue in Higher Education:
Changing Higher Ed Podcast 168 with Host Dr. Drumm McNaughton and Guest Eric Hogue
Although higher ed as a whole believes in the importance of free speech, very few agree on what the free exchange of ideas looks like and how it should function on campus. But with the current hostile political and social climate, it’s now more important than ever for higher education to unite on what truly matters—protecting respectful dialogue and productive speech that leads to a better and kinder society. In this podcast, Dr. Drumm McNaughton speaks with President Eric Hogue of Colorado Christian University on the topic of free speech in higher ed. Eric shares how students must approach disagreements to create a more forward-thinking society and, most significantly, how faculty, staff, and students should conduct themselves in public and in the classroom to elicit more mature behavior.
