A national advocacy group for university professors is taking a closer look at colleges in Texas. The group has formed an inquiry committee to examine the state's universities, including the University of North Texas. The investigation is focused on whether these institutions have allowed attacks on academic freedom to occur.

Further information about the inquiry and its goals can be found through the Denton Record-Chronicle. Details about the investigation and its potential outcomes are not fully available at this time, but the inquiry committee's formation marks the beginning of a closer examination of Texas colleges and their handling of academic freedom issues.
