Well done Auckland professors

The FSU released:

University of Auckland Senate rightly rejects flawed academic freedom policy after lengthy four-year development process 
 
After more than four years of development, academic staff at the University of Auckland have overwhelmingly rejected the Freedom of Expression and Academic Freedom Policy that was presented to Senate in September, says Jonathan Ayling, Chief Executive of the Free Speech Union.

 “It is good news that the academics of the University of Auckland pushed back on such a flawed policy. It would have imposed constraints on speech creatinga chilling effect on academic freedom and discourse at the university. 

This is good news. The policy is a trojan horse for censorship. They should simply adopt the excellent Otago University one.
