According to the attorneys who contribute to GC, The First Amendment protects our free speech from government interference only. If Northwestern isn't a part of the (a?) government (for instance, state owned), the First doesn't apply.

Northwestern is a private school. Right?

The question might be if the amendment would apply if the school accepts state or federal funds -- like in research grants, etc.

Any of you lawyers want to weigh in?
