In the wake of hate group rallies and protests of controversial speakers on college campuses, how far does the right to free speech extend? What are its limits? Should the federal government and universities be empowered to place further restrictions on speech, or would further curtailments do more harm than good? Join us as we discuss with Professor Geoffrey Stone, Edward H. Levi Distinguished Service Professor at the University of Chicago, and Professor Genevieve Lakier, Assistant Professor of Law at the University of Chicago. This episode of Briefly, a production of the University of Chicago Law Review, was produced by Tom Molloy and John Tienken. Music from www.bensound.com. Special thanks to the entire online team, including Grace Bridwell, Tom Garvey, Noel Ottman, and Kathryn Running, and our Editor in Chief Pat Ward and Executive Editor Kyle Jorstad. Thanks for listening!

The University of Chicago rededicated its main Administration building as Edward H. Levi Hall on Oct. 14, 2013, honoring the former dean, provost and president who helped shape the University and set it on its current course. The grandson of one of the University’s founding faculty members, Levi received degrees from the Laboratory Schools, the College and the Law School, and went on to serve as dean of the Law School and acting dean of the College. He was the first University leader to hold the title of provost, and in 1968 he became the first UChicago alumnus to serve as president of the University. He later served as U.S. Attorney General.

It has become commonplace in American political discourse for Christian evangelicals to assert that the United States was founded as a "Christian nation" and that in recent decades secularists have gained control and distorted our nation's founding traditions and values. In this lecture, Edward H. Levi Distinguished Service Professor Geoffrey Stone examines the beliefs of the Framers on this question. What did they think about Christianity, about the role of Christianity in the American nation, and about the relationship between religion generally and self-governance? The answers to these questions are important not only to constitutional interpretation, but even more fundamentally to an understanding of who we are – and who we are supposed to be – as a nation.This talk was recorded April 21, 2008 as part of the Chicago's Best Ideas lecture series.
