This paper presents the annual report of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) for 2010. FIRE's approach in 2010 was centered on altering the incentive structure for universities by using both "carrots" and "sticks" to produce positive reforms and long-term results. These efforts gained significant force in September, when FIRE won a federal civil rights lawsuit through its Legal Network against a former university president on behalf of a student whose First Amendment rights were grossly violated. Throughout 2010, FIRE reminded administrators of their responsibility to respect freedom of expression and to eliminate the culture of censorship that has long prevailed on campus. As FIRE look ahead, it will use all of the tactics and technology at its disposal to stay one step ahead of campus censors. This paper reports updates on FIRE's various projects including: (1) Individual Rights Defense Program; (2) Major Defense Campaigns of 2010; (3) Policy Reform Project; (4) Legal Transformation Project; (5) Campus Freedom Network; (6) Individual Rights Education Program; and (7) Public Awareness Project.

This paper presents the annual report of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) for 2009. The year 2009 was momentous for FIRE, for it marked its tenth anniversary. In the last decade, FIRE has been remarkably successful at fighting to secure basic rights of free speech and conscience on college campuses. It has fought for student and faculty rights in every corner of the country, and as of December 31, 2009, it has won 166 victories at 126 colleges and universities with a total enrollment of more than 2.7 million students. FIRE is directly responsible for changing 85 unconstitutional or repressive policies affecting more than 1.75 million students at 73 of these universities, including the entire California State University and University of Wisconsin systems. For this reason, FIRE's plans for 2010 include a significant increase in its already expansive public awareness efforts, including the first-ever Sweidy Stata Video Fellow, who will document more of FIRE's almost unbelievable cases on film and distribute them to the public. The power of video lies in its ability to convey the reality and personal cost of campus repression, bringing them home in a way no other medium can. [For the 2008 Annual Report, see ED536970.].

This book offers research-based models of exemplary practice for educators at all grade levels, from primary school to university, who want to integrate human rights education into their classrooms. It includes ten examples of projects that have been effectively implemented in classrooms: two from elementary school, two from middle school, three from high school, two from community college, and one from a university. Each model discusses the scope of the project, its rationale, students' response to the content and pedagogy, challenges or controversies that arose, and their resolution. Unique in integrating theory and practice and in addressing human rights issues with special relevance for communities of color in the US, this book provides indispensable guidance for those studying and teaching human rights.

This year, the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) conducted an expansive study of just how pervasive and how onerous restrictions on speech are at America's colleges and universities. Between September 2005 and September 2006, FIRE surveyed over 330 schools and found that an overwhelming majority of them explicitly prohibit speech that, outside the borders of campus, is protected by the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Highlights from FIRE's research include: (1) Davidson College in North Carolina prohibits "comments or inquiries about dating," "patronizing remarks," "innuendoes," and "dismissive comments"; (2) At Jacksonville State University in Alabama, students can be punished if they "offend" anyone "on university owned or operated property"; and (3) At the University of Mississippi, "offensive language is not to be used" over the telephone. This report is intended to serve as a brief guide to the status of the free speech rights of students and faculty at colleges and universities and to the ways in which universities are violating these rights. It is FIRE's hope that by exposing the extent of the problem, it will draw increased public attention to the sad state of free speech on American campuses. Public scrutiny is perhaps the greatest weapon against these abuses. States by Geographical Region are appended. (Contains 7 figures and 8 footnotes.).

This book examines the crucial issues affecting Human Rights Education in contexts of culture, religious and societal diversity. It exhibits an impressive scholarly achievement, capturing and combining the insights of both established academics and emerging researchers. Each author succeeds in distilling the knowledge of their particular fields of interest, as well as conveying the essence of their intuitive understanding and the richness of the context. This book considers a variety of connected content and methodological issues in three major sections: ‘Philosophical and policy perspectives’, ‘Gender discourses: diverse perspectives’ and ‘Discourses on narratives as safe spaces’. The Edition is further strengthened by allowing international reviewers the opportunity of engaging with the contributors in the Introduction and Conclusion, an innovative departure from conventional formats and which will provide a global perspective to the readers. The focus of the various chapters succeeds in establishing both a foundation and platform for dialogue surrounding human rights and human rights education in modern policy and governance. Aptly named “Safe Spaces”, the Edition offers in-depth and credible (“safe”) nuances (“spaces”), in terms of the somewhat reified concept of human rights, at a time when human rights remains a highly topical and contested international issue. As such, the book imparts an immense scope of theoretical and empirical perspectives, reflected by the distinguished intellectuals who navigate the terrain of their respective disciplines with profound erudition. This book represents a collaborative effort of immeasurable value. This exemplary edition is both timeous, and will prove timeless.
