About Us

Founded by a group of Harvard Alumni dedicated to civil rights, civil liberties, and objective truth, the FAIR Harvard Alumni+ Chapter brings together Harvard Alumni as well as current Harvard University students, faculty, staff and parents of undergrads who support the mission and principles of FAIR.

FAIR Executive Director Monica Harris (JD '91), along with FAIR Board of Advisors members Andrew Sullivan (MPA ’86, PhD ’90), Nadine Strossen (AB ‘72, JD ‘75) and Stephen Hawkins (MPP ‘16), are among the Harvard Alumni standing up for civil rights and liberties for all Americans while promoting a common culture based on fairness, understanding and humanity. We hope that you will join us, too.

The FAIR Harvard Alumni+ Chapter aims to connect our members with one another, raise awareness around issues relevant to Harvard and higher education, support our members as they navigate issues related to FAIR’s mission, and stand up as one voice in defense of civil rights, civil liberties, intellectual freedom and viewpoint diversity on campus and beyond.
