Submit a Case

When appropriate, FIRE contacts college administrators to remind them of their moral and legal obligations to uphold the First Amendment rights of individuals on campus. FIRE may also seek public exposure of an individual's plight, a process that encourages colleges and universities to remember their responsibility to respect the individual rights of students and faculty.

FIRE does not cover the costs of ongoing litigation nor represent individuals in lawsuits. FIRE also does not take cases that are from the staff of colleges or universities, involve elementary or high schools, have grade disputes as the primary issue, are from outside the United States, or are submitted by phone or fax.

Please do not call or fax us. A representative from FIRE will contact you via e-mail regarding your case submission. Before you submit this form, we recommend that you type your case details into a new document outside your web browser. In the event of an error, you won't lose any information.
