We are a leader in efforts to encourage alumni at other universities to form free speech organizations.

关于我们

Princetonians for Free Speech (PFS) was created by a group of Princeton alumni in November of 2020 with the mission of promoting free speech and academic freedom at Princeton, as well as other universities. PFS is an IRS approved tax-exempt organization. While we are an alumni-focused and run organization, all Princetonians – alumni, faculty, students, parents of students, and staff – are welcome to participate and do participate. In addition, others who are interested in free speech and academic freedom at universities can and do subscribe to PFS email alerts and use our website. PFS gives the many Princetonians who support free speech and academic freedom a mechanism to make their voices heard and to work together with others who feel the same way. The founders of PFS created our organization because they believe free speech and academic freedom are issues of great urgency that go well beyond what is happening on campuses today. It is often said that today’s students are the leaders of tomorrow. Yet it is clear from recent events, as well as a number of polls, that many students, and even faculty, do not understand the importance of free speech and academic freedom; in fact, they often oppose these fundamental concepts. PFS has rallied, and will rally, support for Princeton students and faculty who are being attacked or harassed for expressing their views. Our organization is also a vehicle for Princetonians who wish to contact the University about specific developments on campus that they believe impede free speech or academic freedom. PFS is non-partisan. Our board consists of a broad cross-section of Princeton alumni, and board members cover classes from 2021 back to 1970. We will stand up for free speech and academic freedom of progressives, moderates, and conservatives alike. PFS explicitly supports the “Chicago Principles,” the vision of free expression and academic freedom created at the University of Chicago and adopted by Princeton in 2015.

    I’m happy to share that I’m starting a new position as Executive Director at Princetonians for Free Speech! Freedom of speech is a cornerstone of democracy—it’s not just a policy, but an essential right that empowers individuals to express their ideas without fear. Founded in 2020 with the mission of promoting free speech, academic freedom and viewpoint diversity at Princeton (and other universities), I’ll be leading PFS's strategic growth and impact as the organization moves into its next phase. Personally, this role is meaningful for me. Tolerance is in decline and free speech and viewpoint diversity are in big trouble. I'm honored to help create a world where my children can freely speak their minds at school, on their university campus, or in the world—without fear of retribution or censorship.
