Preserving an environment of free speech
As an educational institution, Indiana University is dedicated to fostering an environment that values a culture of open dialogue and free expression on all our campuses. IU will protect, as far as possible, the physical safety of all members of our community, including speakers, supporters, and protestors, regardless of their views or affiliations.
To affirm this commitment to free expression, the IU Board of Trustees unanimously adopted the Chicago Principles on February 20, 2026.
