Speech Codes on Campus

It is crucial for colleges to enforce speech codes on campus. Speech codes are colleges’ way of preventing discrimination and harassment on campus. Many student may argue that they are loosing some of their freedom of speech from these codes, but because it is at a university those rights aren’t always guaranteed. It is the colleges responsibility to ensure that all students feel safe and if they dont feel safe punishment must be made. Students should be able to express their freedom of specch to a certain extent but when others start to feel threatened that is when the colleges need to intervene.

The policies and restrictions on free speech at my desired universities are established to make the safest environment possible.  I think that  it is important for colleges to make additional regulations so that every student feels safe and secure.
