Young Americans for Liberty at the University of Georgia v. Morehead

The University of Georgia’s “speech zones” limit most student group free speech activities to less than one percent of the college’s main campus. If students wish to speak in other locations on campus, the university requires them to get permission 48 hours in advance. In March 2011, Young Americans for Liberty conducted a debt clock display to draw attention to the mounting national debt. University officials told YAL they needed to cease their expressive activities because it was outside the speech zones.
