The Digital Freedom Campaign, a broad-based coalition of artists, consumers and innovators seeking balanced copyright reform for the digital world, today announced a major initiative to launch college campus chapters around the country that will promote the freedom of students to participate fully in the digital revolution. The first such chapter announced today will be established at Virginia's James Madison University.
The Campaign, which is strongly opposed to illegal downloads and piracy, views students as an important cutting-edge audience that must be educated-not threatened. As evidenced by the explosion of social networking and digital innovation taking place on campuses across the country, the Digital Freedom Campaign believes that students deserve a role in shaping the policies of our digital future. To that end, the campaign will begin today inviting student leaders to open Digital Freedom University chapters on college campuses nationwide.
The campaign invites all interested college students to contact the Campaign by e-mail at dfu@digitalfreedom.org to learn how to start a Digital Freedom college chapter on their campus. The Campaign will also reach out directly to student leaders to help organize campus activities. This opportunity will provide students with valuable leadership experience, as well as exposure to public affairs and grassroots organizing and promotion. Interested parties are encouraged to visit http://www.digitalfreedom.org to learn more about the campaign.
