In an email to the student body last week, University of Florida President Kent Fuchs expressed befuddlement at his recent discovery that the public university must allow free speech.
“If you are like me, I expect you are surprised and even shocked to learn that UF is required by law to allow Mr. Spencer to speak his racist views on our campus,” Fuchs wrote in a statement alerting students that Richard Spencer, a prominent white nationalist, will be visiting campus on October 19.

First Amendment is news to him?
Oh, well, I imagine the Second Amendment is news to university presidents in most other states.
Must have been a constitutional professor like Obama....
You don’t have to let him speak. You can attack him like you do all of the people you don’t want to speak.
Yep!
You stole my post.
Me thinks that this is virtue signalling.
Well look, it is the first amendment. I can see how he might have gotten tired when reading through all the amendments.

Is this a real “white supremacist” or just a republican (which they think is the same thing)
...UF Profs and admins know just as much about the US Constitution as Jim McElwaine knows about running an offense and developing QBs...
And as much as law professor(adjunct only) Hussein Obama, Kamala Harris, the SPLC, the Clintons, and the entire 9th Circuit.
They need a new President at that university.
Kent Fuchs is an inferiorist. He believes inferior should rule.
I’ve heard other FReepers express disdain for Mr. Spencer’s views. But I couldn’t tell you if he is rabidly racist or not.
Went to school with a Richard Fuchs. 1st day of class was always interesting when the teacher tried to pronounce his name.
Getting the feeling that college presidents are at the absolute bottom of intelligence when compared to the rest of the faculty?
Yes, that’s right, dumber even than the “studies” departments and their associated cretin students.
Now imagine, if you can, ANY job that these jokers could hold were there not universities.
Heck, even Starbucks would reject them.
"He was a professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and the Coordinated Science Laboratory at the University of Illinois from 1985 to 1996."

'surprised' and 'shocked' how the 1st amendment protects individuals from him and his fellow technocratic, socially engineered, Überpoodles, is he?
You will hear more REAL racism from the students and faculty on a daily basis than you will hear from that idiot Spencer.
Same thing with the head of UNT. He was quoted in the Dallas Morning News saying, “I did everything I could to stop Donald Trump Jr. from speaking here, but it’s not an easy thing to do and I failed.” Ahh, poor little Nazi.
You’re right. Worse than Fuchs is “Law Professor” Kenneth Nunn who is a “first-amendment radical” meaning that he wants to ignore the First Amendment.
I hope someone asks him if he wants to start the shooting now or later. Either way, he and his lefty buddies lose.
What are the qualifications to be a university president,an 8th grade education?
