Seeing Red in Academia

Posted on: | by Christine Anne George |

The next time you’re in Law Library, be sure to check out the new display on the second floor by the main stairs. “Seeing Red in Academia” highlights a particularly interesting time in UB history when four professors and a librarian went all the way to the Supreme Court the challenge the loyalty oaths that every New York public school professor and teacher had to sign during the McCarthy era. Culminating in the 1967 Supreme Court case Keyishian v. Board of Regents, the UB faculty members gained an important victory for academic freedom.
