Tonight, Cornell Law was pleased to host a panel discussion to kick off @Cornell’s year-long series "The Indispensable Condition: Freedom of Expression at Cornell." Moderated by Professor Gautam Hans, the panel featured Professors Michael Dorf and Nelson Tebbe, along with Karen Levy, professor in the Department of Information Science in @CornellCIS. The panelists discussed a variety of issues, including First Amendment protections for speech and assembly, challenges applying those protections in a democratic and pluralistic society, and the ways speech principles play out in a rapidly changing digital world.
