Upcoming events
Join NAS for "Saving Special Education," and "DEI Reform at the Universities"
Dear Friend,


We invite you to join the National Association of Scholars on Tuesday, January 20, at 2 pm ET for "Saving Special Education," a webinar event centered around special education, what the government should be doing to promote it, and looking toward the future. Join us again on Tuesday, January, 27, at 2 pm ET for "DEI Reform at the Universities," which will feature a discussion on our comprehensive plan to rid the sciences of the DEI agenda.

Americans are a compassionate people who rightly have committed themselves to providing special education—education devoted to the needs of children with physical or mental disabilities. The Federal commitment to special education, unfortunately, has been very badly managed. Federal special education law does not serve the American people well—nor the children who need special education.
 

That's the argument of Waste Land: Special Education. Discussing that argument, and special education reform more broadly, will be report author David Randall (Director of Research, National Association of Scholars), Jonathan Butcher (Acting Director, Center for Education Policy and Will Skillman Senior Research Fellow in Education Policy, The Heritage Foundation), and Miriam Kurtzig Freedman (School Attorney, Teacher, and Author).

Join the National Association of Scholars for "DEI Reform at the Universities" on Tuesday, January 27, at 2 pm ET.


The Trump administration may be rolling back the “diversity, equity, and inclusion” (DEI) agenda at the NIH and other government research agencies, but reforms at the top are not enough. When the political winds change, as they inevitably will, the corrosive ideology of DEI remains entrenched at colleges and universities, ready to reassert itself. Now, the campaign shifts to the institutions, which need to implement wide-ranging reforms that will restore the universities to bastions of truth seeking and make the reforms stick.
 

This event will feature David Randall, Director of Research at the National Association of Scholars; William Frezza, from the MIT Free Speech Alliance; and J. Scott Turner, Director of Science Programs at the National Association of Scholars. Dorion Abbot, from the University of Chicago, will serve as moderator of the discussion and audience Q&A.
