Students say their freedom of expression at universities is under threat, a major survey has found. Research by King's College London has found one in five students – 22 per cent – believe they can't speak their minds while on campus. And 12 per cent of students say they have 'very or fairly often' heard about incidents where freedom of expression has been inhibited in their university. In addition, half of students think freedom of expression is being threatened in the UK overall. Professor Jonathan Grant, vice-president at King's, said: 'Most students do not think freedom of expression is under threat at their institution and few have encountered incidents where people have been prevented from voicing their opinions.
