Though limited in information and free speech frameworks, the University in theory defends it through their Equality and Diversity policy. They also have nothing to suggest anything to the contrary.
University of Highlands and Islands has limited information available relating to these topics. It holds “no specific policy” on the freedom of expression, and “no specific policy/view on the Freedom of Speech in Universities inquiry.”
Information is not held regarding whether students should be allowed to express a deeply held pro- life conviction, their Student Code simply stipulates that “all students are expected to conduct themselves in an appropriate manner to other students, staff and external organisations.” They do not have a policy regarding whether an external pro-life speaker would be allowed to speak. However, their Equality and Diversity policy states in point 1.1 that the University “is committed to equality of opportunity and non-discrimination in all aspects of its work and study.”
