The mission of the MIT Free Speech Alliance is to promote free expression, academic freedom, viewpoint diversity, and open scientific inquiry, without regard to partisanship or ideology. Through the execution of our mission we aim to build community around a shared commitment to free expression at MIT and promote an institutional culture supportive of open inquiry. The MIT Free Speech Alliance is a 501(c)(3) organization founded and supported by MIT alumni, and is independent of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
