This foundation is one of the few that fights for the rights of students and faculty. They have proven themselves time and time again as an organization which holds themselves to a high standard, and will pursue their principles in all situations. For anyone who care about student or faculty rights or the broader issues of academic freedom, freedom of speech, religion, assembly, the press, and due process need not look any further for an organization which champions their beliefs. This group is one of precious few shining light on what is becoming an increasingly daunting tale of censorship, political correctness, and rights abuses in higher education. There are few organizations serving such a massive need with so few fellow non-profits to assist and even fewer organizations more deserving of time and support.
