USC Soars in Speech Climate Rankings, Harvard Lags
The University of North Carolina has made significant strides in improving its campus speech climate, while Harvard University continues to lag behind. The University of North Carolina's efforts have led to a substantial rise in rankings, while Harvard remains at the bottom.
In 2021, the University of North Carolina took concrete steps to enhance its language climate by promoting inclusive and respectful communication. These initiatives have paid off, with the university jumping from a dismal 246th place last year to an impressive 34th this year. This remarkable improvement is attributed to the university's serious efforts to reform its speech climate.
Harvard, on the other hand, has focused more on policy revisions and broader diversity training programs. However, these efforts have not translated into improved rankings. The university remains at the bottom, with an 'Abysmal' speech climate, even receiving a negative score in last year's College Free Speech Rankings. Both universities have a history of canceling speakers or sanctioning scholars, but the University of North Carolina's recent efforts suggest a shift in this trend.
