Section 16-68-1 (Effective July 1, 2020) Legislative findings. The Legislature makes the following
findings: (1) Article I, Section 4 of the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, recognizes that
all persons may speak, write, and publish their sentiments on all subjects, and that "no
law shall ever be passed to curtail or restrain the liberty of speech...." (2) Alabama's

is "no room for the view that First Amendment protections should apply with less force
on college campuses than in the community at large." Healy, 408 U.S. at 180. (4) The
United...
