About this episode

In this episode, I talk to Stuart Reges, Teaching Professor of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Washington. A veteran of campus politics, Reges talks to me about his pending lawsuit against the university for violating his First Amendment rights. After they encouraged faculty to include a "land acknowledgement statement" on their syllabi, they censored the one that Reges wrote. We also talk about LGBT activism on campus, the funding of campus DEI initiatives, and the controversy around his recent essay entitled "Why Women Don't Code."
