This fall, more than twenty Students for Liberty-affiliated chapters across the country passed out over 1,500 copies of FIRE's Guide to Free Speech on Campus and over 500 copies of FIRE's Guide to First-Year Orientation and Thought Reform on Campus at orientations and student group fairs on their respective campuses. The effort was part of a coordinated "Students Rights Week" held on campuses across the country. It was a great way to kick off the fall semester and inform new and returning students about their essential rights on campus.

Luke and Brandon attended a reception kicking off the 2009 YAL Convention. They had the opportunity to mingle with students from around the country and explain FIRE's work and the resources available to them through FIRE's Campus Freedom Network. Each participant received a free copy of FIRE's Guide to Free Speech on Campus.

Following the success of the 2008 Campus Freedom Network conference, students from all across the country met in Philadelphia to learn from one another and from leading experts on the First Amendment. Through two full days of workshops, panels, and lectures students gained the tools they will need to restore liberty to their campuses.

FIRE's 2008 Summer Conference was the first large scale effort by the Campus Freedom Networkto connect students from across the country with some of the foremost national experts on free speech, due process, and religious liberty. The conference was a three day, two night affair, held at the Doubletree Hotel in downtown Philadelphia from Thursday, June 26th – Saturday, June 28th. During the dinner, famed journalist and Manhattan Institute scholar John Leo gave the keynote address. The next day's session was filled to the brim with lectures, panels and general activity. Students heard from FIRE Co-Founder Harvey Silverglate, Senior Counsel Steve Aden of the Alliance Defense Fund, Stanford Law Professor Derek Shaffer and Professor of Brooklyn College and author KC Johnson all in one morning. That afternoon, FIRE President Greg Lukianoff gave a presentation about students' rights, while FIRE Vice President Robert Shibley and Samantha Harris, Director of FIRE's Spotlight program, explained the dangers and prevalence of speech codes on campus. KC Johnson stunned listeners with a complete review of the travesty of the Duke University lacrosse case in his after-dinner speech. Finally, on Saturday morning, filmmaker Evan Coyne Maloney gave a presentation about the use of new media in the fight for liberty on college campuses and then a panel of students from prominent FIRE cases concluded the conference.
