FILE - Middlebury College students turn their backs to Charles Murray, unseen, during his lecture in Middlebury, Vt., March 2, 2017. New polling finds that America’s college campuses are seen as far friendlier to liberals than to conservatives when it comes free speech.

WDEF in Chattanooga, Tennessee, reports that Americans believe conservatives face stronger bias on campus. (October 2023)
