Jeffrey C. Isaac is James H. Rudy Professor of Political Science at Indiana University, Bloomington.

Author's note: The following is the text of a speech delivered on the campus of Indiana University , Bloomington on April 29, 2024 during a rally that called for the termination of Indiana University President Pamela Whitten and Provost Rahul Shrivastav after they brought heavily armed Indiana State Troopers—including snipers—onto the campus to violently repress peaceful protests.
It represents a clear and present danger to the safety of everyone on campus within range of the weapons; an equally clear and present danger to our constitutionally protected civil liberties; and a profound danger to the intellectual freedom and education that is at the heart of any serious university.It would be a gross understatement to say that this violent response constitutes an infringement of academic freedom.
