Three San Diego County universities have been flagged by a free speech advocacy group, which warned that the campuses had policies too subjective and ambiguous to meet 1st Amendment standards.

The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, a Philadelphia-based group commonly referred to as FIRE, gave public universities San Diego State, UC San Diego and Cal State San Marcos β€œyellow light” ratings, meaning the institutions have β€œat least one ambiguous policy that too easily encourages administrative abuse and arbitrary application,” according to the organization’s website.
