You can’t say that: Stories of suppressed speech in universities
In 2020, former Chief Justice of the High Court of Australia, Robert French investigated whether there was a free speech crisis on university campuses. He found conclusively that there wasn’t. But since then, students have come forward with stories of suppressed speech. Drew Pavlou seized international headlines when the University of Queensland suspended him for criticising their connection to the Chinese Communist Party. A free speech debate erupted. If Robert French was right, why was Drew suspended? Was his story a once-off high profile case? Or did it give the public a glimpse into a wider suppression of free speech on university campuses?
