Since 2002, David Horowitz has waged a national campaign to shield students from coercive political indoctrination in the classroom.
The linchpin of his program is the Academic Bill of Rights, a set of principles which Horowitz urges colleges and universities to adopt. In the case of state-run schools which refuse to honor these standards, Horowitz lobbies to enforce academic freedom through state legislation.
Through his Center for the Study of Popular Culture (CSPC), Horowitz has launched two national groups to carry on the fight for propaganda-free classrooms. Students for Academic Freedom focuses on college and university campuses, while Parents and Students for Academic Freedom seeks to protect kids in K-12 schools from political harassment.
With interest growing quickly from educators, journalists, legislators, parents and students, the need for authoritative information on the academic freedom movement has never been greater. We therefore present this timeline of the campaign, with major milestones noted and hyperlinked. The timeline will be updated regularly to keep our readers abreast of breaking news.

Check out what others are saying about this post...With the leftwing media and congressional monopolies broken, this remains the last fortress of our domestic enemies and Dave has absolutely focused on the most important target within our borders.
If we can break their stranglehold on academia, communism will finally and truly be dead (at least in America) and will lose much of its global momentum.
It will also stop them from stocking their ranks with jihadis
David Horowitz has seemingly quietly gone about this very vital work – which will in the long term prove to be a crucial and key effort in the reclamation from 50-plus years of lefitist infiltration and adulteration of one more of our nation’s most important institutions.
The fact that MsM refuses to pay any attention to this movement is testimony to the leftists’ greatest fear – that revealing the truth in any degree or form, about what they have done to our nation’s educational system, what they really want in the long run, and who they really are, will speed their inevitable and long overdue total demise.
This is the final major sector of US society which has been and still is a major hidden source of unbridled pro-leftist/socialist/communist ideologies and, worst of all, it harbors, promotes, and redistributes our wealth to the undeserving, un-productive greatest haters of the USA. It’s far past time to fully expose all that has gone on, on all campuses.
Keep this most important work/movement going Mr. Horowitz and all!
For the closet communist/fascists: Move yourselves to the happy utopia of North Korea and find out where that “cold war paranoid rightwinger stuff” went 15-20 years ago. Also, name one US educational institution which has ANY formal instruction/program dealing with the horrors and crimes against humanity – on the most monumental scale – of all human history, perpetrated by your heroes. One.
Then again, 100 million dead in the name of utopia is nothing, holds no intellectual value for the elitest leftists. When will leftists admit that their legacy, their ideology, their political heroes are responsible for the worst crimes ever committed against humankind?
Sharikov asks: “When will leftists admit that their legacy, their ideology, their political heroes are responsible for the worst crimes ever committed against humankind?”
Never.
Feudalists never admit their stupidity because it is what defines them. From the avaricious government monopolists to the slothful and envy-addled willing serfs, they are unashamed of their depravity or that of their predecessors.
It seems to be human nature that half of us want a free ride – whether it be on the bridge or in the bilge – and the suffering and death of anyone that stands in the way means nothing.
David is an outstanding man for his efforts! My thoughts and prayers are with him, and everyone who is working to make this an even better country!
Goodness WILL prevail!
Eventually.
