"As alumni, we were concerned with actions taken by the Administration, and felt some corrections were needed for the long term good of the Institute. However, it's difficult to know how alumni can best help their school. FIREprovides that information and then equips us with the tools to bring positive change."
Charles Davis, MIT Free Speech Alliance
