  • Van Munching Hall

This gathering will bring together HxA Campus Communities from Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina, and welcomes any institution of higher education across the region—whether you're already an HxA member steeped in the HxA way or just “HxA curious.”

About the Heterodox Academy: "We advocate for policy and culture changes that ensure our universities are truth-seeking, knowledge-generating institutions grounded in open inquiry, viewpoint diversity, and constructive disagreement - because great minds don't always think alike."
