On  October 21, 2009 I spoke to students at Texas State University School of Journalism & Mass Communication as part of their  Mass Communications Week.

With more than 30,000 students, Texas State is the 5^th largest university in Texas and one of the 55 largest in the United States. Texas State University has more than 1,700 majors enrolled in our undergraduate and graduate programs — which makes the program one of the largest journalism and mass communication programs in the state of Texas – and the nation. Here is what the school has said about the presentation:

“Brian was one of the featured speakers at our annual Mass Communication Week at Texas State University. He was able to engage the audience and get them to think about the issue of hate speech on the Internet. A week later students were still debating the issue on what speech should and should not be protected. For that to happen with students means Brian’s talk really resonated with them. I’m sure he will get your audiences to think about the issue as well.“
