Freedom to see things differently. Criticism and political initiatives by students and faculty are in the DNA of Freie Universität. Examples include the Kritische Universität in the winter of 1967, the Kritische Orientierungswochen (KorFu) at the beginning of every winter semester, or the courses of the Kritische Wirtschaftswissenschaftler*innen (Critical Economists) or the Kritische Jurist*innen (Critical Legal Scholars).

Freedom to see things differently: In 2018, on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of Freie Universität Berlin, the student union AStA reacted to the reporting and official celebrations with a counterstatement: “FU70: Gegendarstellungen.” Many people who were involved in protests over the years also contributed to the document.
