Free Speech On Campus Act

This bill amends the Higher Education Act of 1965 to mandate that public institutions of higher education provide new students with comprehensive information regarding their First Amendment rights. This requirement serves as a condition for these institutions to participate in federal student aid programs under Title IV. Specifically, at orientation for new and transfer students, institutions must provide a written statement explaining First Amendment rights, affirming the institution's commitment to freedom of expression, and assuring protection for students and invited speakers. Additionally, they must offer educational programming , including online resources, that describes policies protecting free expression, prohibits exclusionary behavior, and teaches productive expression of diverse views. The bill also requires the institution to post this written statement on its publicly accessible website.
