Crimson Courage
Harvard alumni standing up for academic freedom at Harvard and beyond.
Crimson Courage is a community of Harvard alumni standing up for academic freedom and constitutional rights in higher education. It was founded to support Harvard’s independence despite financial and other threats from the federal government.
Crimson Courage also endorses academic freedom and freedom of speech; opposes federal efforts to suppress voices, censor vital scholarship, and diminish the presence of varied populations and viewpoints on campus; urges improvements in communication of differing viewpoints and respect among people from different backgrounds; and joins in the urgent advocacy for independent higher education nationally.
Crimson Courage is a volunteer-led, nonpartisan project hosted by Foundation for Civic Leadership.
