The Overall Score combines seven unique dimensions to identify the top ranked college campuses for student free speech and open inquiry. The top-ranked colleges have the highest average score among all students surveyed and have the most open environments for free speech.

The #1 school (out of 203 schools) in the nation for Free Speech is the University of Chicago. Kansas State and Purdue were #2 and #3 respectively. For the full list: LINK

Arkansas is about where I thought they'd be.

Fayetteville is leftist as frick. The college is slightly less Commie, due to suburban Texas kids.

For the most part, liberals hate free speech unless you’re in their echo chamber.
