FIRE Speech Rating
Idaho 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.
According to its mission statement, "Idaho State University is a public research-based institution that advances scholarly and creative endeavors through academic instruction and the creation of new knowledge, research, and artistic works. ISU provides leadership in the health professions, biomedical, and pharmaceutical sciences, as well as serving the region and the nation through delivery of preeminent technical, undergraduate, graduate, professional, and interdisciplinary education. The University fosters a culture of diversity and engages and impacts communities through partnerships and services." [Source]
