Maryland Campus Area Free Expression Act protects free speech on public higher education campuses.
The Maryland Campus Area Free Expression Act ensures that outdoor areas on public higher education campuses are considered public forums for expressive activities. It prohibits institutions from designating "free speech zones" or restricting expressive activities to specific areas. Public institutions must not charge security fees based on the content of expression or anticipated reactions. If they do charge fees, they must use content-neutral criteria.
