At the last minute, officials at the State University of New York at New Paltz curtly canceled a planned campus debate between a notable left-wing media critic and a notable right-wing media critic because the right-wing media critic has right-wing views.

School officials had blasted out emails promoting the event as late as March 28.

Then, on the afternoon of March 30, SUNY New Paltz student activities director Mike Patterson declared that the debate would not occur.

"The intended purpose for our community would likely not be achieved," Patterson explained, according to The New Paltz Oracle, the campus newspaper.

Emails obtained by the Oracle show that school officials aborted the debate because sociology professor Anne Roschelle complained about Kincaid's political views. Specifically, she advised that the leftist, terrorism-inspiring Southern Poverty Law Center keeps an "Extremist File" concerning Kincaid.

Unidentified students and other professors also complained, Patterson said.

The State?

Sounds like a 1A violation.

Colleges are not about education anymore. They are a 4 year hazing ritual that includes extreme left-wing indoctrination, a little girls club of make-work and superficial content.

Should have gotten David Brooks. He’s a left-wing conservative on PBS.
