The Berkeley Liberty Initiative
For more than a decade, the Berkeley Liberty Initiative (BLI) has promoted the diversity of perspectives at UC Berkeley. The Ambassador Frank E. Baxter Lecture that the BLI hosts annually enriches the university’s intellectual life by hosting leading thinkers whose expertise and scholarship focus on the ideal of freedom in political and economic life. And the BLI creates opportunities for our students and campus community through collaborative events with organizations like AEI, FIRE, and the Heterodox Academy.
