On Students For Liberty in : “Students on too many campuses across the country have fallen under the misapprehension that the ideals of freedom and equality are best upheld by a collectivist politics that subjugates citizens to the government. Students For Liberty provides an important counterweight to this tradition, reclaiming the radical heritage of individual liberty and reaffirming the role of students at the forefront of the battle for the rights of the individual. By providing community and resources in a manner that upholds the autonomy of the groups we work with, Students For Liberty is helping young people across the United States and around the world to promote the values of liberty and freedom.”

Students For Liberty is the largest pro-liberty student organization in the world.
