FIRE Speech Rating

The Ohio State University earns a Yellow speech code rating from the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE).

A yellow light institution maintains policies that could be interpreted to suppress protected speech or policies that, while clearly restricting freedom of speech, restrict relatively narrow categories of speech.

FIRE evaluates colleges and universities' "speech codes," or written free speech policies, for how well they protect students' freedom of speech. ACTA believes an institution's commitment to free expression correlates with its commitment to academic excellence, facilitated through the free exchange of ideas.

The Ohio State University, "is dedicated to: Creating and discovering knowledge to improve the well-being of our local, state, regional, national and global communities; Educating students through a comprehensive array of distinguished academic programs; Preparing a diverse student body to be leaders and engaged citizens; Fostering a culture of engagement and service."
