(6abc)

University of Pennsylvania President Elizabeth Magill resigned after intense criticism over her comments before Congress on combating antisemitism on college campuses. We’ll debate free speech, academic freedom and if universities play a role in restricting it. Joining us with two different viewpoints are two University of Pennsylvania Professors, Claire Finkelstein, Professor of Law and Professor of Philosophy and Jonathan Zimmerman, Professor of the History of Education.


Paying tribute to the original Wikipedia … a crowd-sourced resource called the Oxford English Dictionary. We hear from Sarah Ogilvie, author of the book The Dictionary People: The Unsung Heroes Who Created the Oxford English Dictionary.
