The final university to achieve ACTA’s Gold Standard for Freedom of Expression™ is @uwyo, Wyoming's flagship.

@VanderbiltU is one of only two universities to achieve a perfect score of 20/20 on ACTA’s Gold Standard for Freedom of Expression™.

The Gold Standard determines if a university's policies foster academic excellence and intellectual diversity on campus.
