Rivlin slams ethics code for university lecturers
President Reuven Rivlin is speaking out against a proposed code of ethics for university lecturers that would bar them from expressing political opinions in lectures.
“Freedom of speech and thought should not be taken for granted,” the president says in a speech at the Knesset.
“The freedom to express a different opinion needs procedural protections and constant vigilance.”
The code has been proposed by Education Minister Naftali Bennett.
