Penn State University, University Park
Heterodox Academy at Penn State promotes open inquiry, viewpoint diversity, and constructive disagreement throughout the Penn State system.
Our community is open to faculty, students, staff, and alumni.
Our goals are:
(1) To promote viewpoint diversity & open inquiry as core values at Penn State.
(2) To create a space for faculty, students, staff, and alumni interested in viewpoint diversity to convene and share ideas.
(3) To create a community to which PSU faculty, students, and staff can turn for help when their heterodox perspectives are at risk of being suppressed.
Do you believe in open inquiry? A group of courageous professors and students have come together on the Penn State University, University Park campus because they believe in open inquiry, too. Will you help them? Your donation will help the HxA Campus Community at Penn State University, University Park put on events that support the cause of open inquiry. As a supporter, you will receive invitations to HxA campus events, and updates on HxA activities on your campus and on other campuses all around the country.
