A national survey of 2,618 U.S. college students finds students feel a tension between traditional academic values of open discourse and a commitment to social justice. This is causing self-censorship and “canceling” that risks undermining the credibility of higher ed institutions.
NEW YORK, Sept. 23, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Recent protests against conservative speakers and state laws defunding diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives show how college campuses have become a major battleground in the nation’s political division. A new report produced by the Constructive Dialogue Institute (CDI) and More in Common (MIC), “Free Speech and Inclusion: How College Students are Navigating Shifting Speech Norms,” analyzes how college students’ political ideology, race, and gender relate to their experiences with free speech and inclusion on campus.
Key findings include:
“It might be assumed that students from more marginalized groups are the ones being offended and doing the calling out. But our research tells a more nuanced story,” said Mylien Duong, co-author of the report and Senior Director of Research at CDI. “Ideological differences between liberal and conservative students, even more than race or gender, are the main drivers of conflict about speech. This insight can inform how campus leaders frame inclusion and free expression initiatives. Solutions focused on shared values, not just identities, will improve culture and open discourse.”
A further reason for the contention surrounding speech appears to be that students differ in the degree to which they subscribe to social justice ideas like “marginalized groups understand society better than others.” Students agreeing more with such statements are much more likely to feel offended, to engage in calling out or “canceling,” and to see “canceling” as appropriate accountability for causing harm.
“College communities and individual students appear to be grappling with how to reconcile two valid pursuits: first, to convey empathy and respect towards other students, especially those from marginalized communities, and secondly to preserve an open discourse that allows for healthy disagreement,” said Stephen Hawkins, co-author of the report and Director of Research at More in Common.
The report concludes with five recommendations for higher education institutions, including supporting faculty in facilitating discussions around these topics and educating students on preserving free expression while advocating for marginalized groups.
The full report is available for the public at constructivedialogue.org/articles/collegesurvey.

“Innovation is critical to the future of food,” said Andy Jarvis, director of the Bezos Earth Fund’s Future of Food program. “The challenge of transforming our food systems to feed 10 billion people within planetary boundaries is, quite frankly, immense. In order to respond to it, tapping into humanity’s innovation capacity is essential.”
“The innovations on the Food Systems Tech dashboard are the ‘best-bets’ that should whet the appetites of disruptors, entrepreneurs and investors from the public and private sectors everywhere,” he continued. “Some of the innovations are already of interest to the Bezos Earth Fund.”
Until now, there has been no easy, centralized way to check in on the most promising food systems innovations under development. Researched by a panel of climate change, agriculture and food specialists and vetted by scientists and industry leaders, the Food Systems Tech dashboard provides objective, expert assessments of the relevance, readiness and potential of each innovation. It focuses on the transformative technologies and approaches that might come into the mainstream in the next 20-30 years, with new innovations being added over the coming months and years.
It organizes the innovations into three key domains:
Dhanush Dinesh, Chief Climate Catalyst at Clim-Eat, said: “Food occupies a unique place in the climate and nature crisis: it contributes to the problem, it’s clearly affected by climate change too, but it’s also a critical source of solutions. The Food Systems Tech website showcases what some of the solutions might be, demystifies the various ways in which the scientific community is rising to the challenge, and allows users to think about where the bottlenecks might be, and where additional funding or policy support might be needed.
“This makes it an essential tool for the global community to navigate the innovation landscape, take stock of where we are, where we’re going, and where they might be able to step in and play a part,” he said.
The Food Systems Tech Dashboard will be launched during the INNOV-EAT Expedition, at Columbia University, New York City, today. As well as showcasing new food systems innovations, the event will share best practices, research findings, and case studies that highlight the positive impact these innovations can have on the environment, society, and the economy.
Bezos Earth Fund
The Bezos Earth Fund is transforming the fight against climate change with the largest ever philanthropic commitment to climate and nature protection. We’re investing $10 billion in this decisive decade to protect nature and drive systems-level change, creating a just transition to a low-carbon economy. By providing funding and expertise, we partner with organizations to accelerate innovation, break down barriers to success and create a more equitable and sustainable world. Join us in our mission to create a world where people prosper in harmony with nature.
