The South Dakota Board of Regents is working through details of a plan that outlines free speech issues and responsibilities for the six campuses.

SDSU President Barry Dunn says there is a working plan in place now…

Dunn says they believe they have an open and accepting campus now….

The policy follows months of discussion over free speech, hate speech, micro-aggressions, trigger warnings, safe spaces and other associated issues.

The Regents may adopt a formal plan early next year.
