This paper by Hazel Biana is now out! She was one of the participants at the Philosophy of Religion in Asia conference Natalja Deng and I co-organized in Seoul, S Korea, in March 2023.

An interesting perspective (Eric Schliesser is always good to read on these matters, even when one disagrees) on distinguishing between academic and freedom of speech, and the problems when you conflate the two (and remarks on donor influence)
Magill's resignation, academic freedom, and honor
