An online forum hosted by PEN America’s Campus Free Speech Program

This is PEN America’s first online forum in our webinar series, “Free Speech & the Virtual Campus.” More webinars will be announced.

Hate and harassment have proliferated online in recent years, posing a serious threat to faculty, students, and to higher education as a whole. With the shift to virtual classrooms as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the issue has become urgent, as faculty and students may find themselves contending with increased harassment, including Zoombombing, or being targeted with messages from hate groups that operate online.

Join this online forum on Tuesday, April 7 at 1pm Pacific standard time to participate in a critical conversation with experts about what faculty need to know about these trends, and how they can prepare to both defend themselves and combat them.
