Freedom Under Assault is a compelling and timely documentary that interrogates the erosion of core academic values at Indiana University, weaving archival footage with firsthand testimony to reveal how institutional power, policy shifts, and political pressures have converged to challenge academic freedom, freedom of speech, and freedom of assembly on campus. Directed by award-winning filmmaker Jacky Comforty and IU Professor Emeritus Robert Arnove, the film traces two years of escalating conflict—from arrests of student protesters to contested expressive activity policies—while centering voices from faculty, students, and alumni who articulate deep concern about the changing character of a once-world-class university. Through its vivid storytelling and critical lens, Freedom Under Assault not only documents specific events but also sparks urgent reflection on the broader threats facing higher education in the United States today.
