The Post and Courier newspaper ran an op-ed by Furman University President Elizabeth Davis. In the piece, Davis explains the importance of hearing from diverse perspectives. She discussed how the recently passed Statement on Freedom of Inquiry and Expression articulates the university’s priorities and responsibilities around free speech, and how On Discourse teaches students to engage in difficult conversations, and how to have constructive, respectful conversations with people of different views.
