First Draft?,

This review is from: FIRE's Guide to First-Year Orientation and Thought Reform on Campus (Paperback)
FIRE is a great organization, but I'd recommend "FIRE's Guide to Free Speech on Campus" before this book. Some of the chapters read like first drafts, and the book is thin on case law support. I was hoping for more of a "here's how we'll fix it" book. It's a valuable book for giving students a head's-up on the kind of issues that may lie ahead in their college experience.
