Lynn Greenky
Lynn Greenky is associate teaching professor at Syracuse University in the Department of Communication and Rhetorical Studies. Ten years ago, she began teaching what has become a beloved undergraduate course about the First Amendment. Her educational background gave her a unique perspective upon which to build a course about the protection provided—and not provided—to Americans by the First Amendment.
