Students For Liberty started in 2008 with a small student gathering at Columbia University. The goal? Help pro-liberty students connect, collaborate, and grow.
The first event was planned for 30 students. Despite a blizzard, 100 showed up. That was the spark.
Today, we’re the largest international pro-liberty student organization in the world, providing young leaders with the training, community, and resources they need to stand up for liberty—and build freer societies.
We embrace diverse justifications for liberty, from classical liberalism to libertarianism, and we welcome civil debate and intellectual curiosity.
Our mission is to equip the next generation of thinkers, doers, and changemakers with the tools to advance freedom—on campus and beyond.
