No institution lives up to all of its principles. But Chicago is pretty well-known for its adherence to academic freedom, and I don't think it has had any major scandals recently. Stanford also stood up for academic freedom last year when the SLS incident went down. The SLS dean who led the administration's response was then elevated to interim provost, which shows the university/board supports that approach. (Of course, Stanford has had it's share of criticism over the outgoing president's issues, but that wasn't about hypocrisy, I don't think.)
