Kaplin & Lee (2014) distinguish “between legal and professional concepts of academic freedom; between First Amendment free expression rights and First Amendment academic freedom rights, which may overlap but are not necessarily the same; and between First Amendment rights and other legal bases for academic freedom” (p. 275). Search the web for the faculty handbook of a college or university. In a short paper, analyze how the institution’s document addresses the issue of academic freedom within the framework outlined by Kaplin & Lee (2014). As you write, reference these sections that align with your short paper critical elements: (a) an overview of the institution, including specifying whether it is public or private; and (b) an analysis of the extent to which academic freedom is addressed in the institution’s faculty handbook from a professional and/or legal concept.
