Universities suck and deserve to implode.

"Sharp criticism of Islam.

Claims that homosexuality is immoral."

But Islam - along with Christianity - regards homosexuality as immoral. There is a bit of madness involved here: you can be punished for criticizing a religion which condemns homosexuality, but you can't condemn homosexuality.

Moreover, Christian students would be offended or threatened by claims that homosexuality is not immoral, and that they can be punished for expressing their religious beliefs on that topic.

The policy collapses under its own internal contradictions.

"They can't open their mouths without violating the policy."

Exactly - the policy collapses under its own contradictions. But don't expect that to stop them. They will vigorously apply double standards; they are evil people.

Welcome to the University of Oregon where you have the right to not be offended.

I think we should all enroll in the most rabid leftist prof class and get our feelings hurt.. just to see if they mean all feelings matter. Shall it be a women’s studies class, a white genocide class?

Academic freedom and tenure now distant memories. These fools brought down their own demise. This will be the final nail in the coffin of higher education. It will go the way of public education and all by self-immolation, the damned fools.

““Colleges” and “universities” have become ZERO TOLERANCE ZONES. It’s time to starting shutting down those sewers of indoctrination and programming.”

The easiest way is to cut off government money to them! Bot directly and indirectly through a cut-off of student loans to those whose policies don’t square with the Constitution.

If I am understanding this correctly - only certain groups can claim they are offended??

So it is open season on Christians of any stripe and on Israel and Jews in general?

It is OK to offend the military and police officers?

Conservatives can be offended without any recourse?

Since about 98% of University of Oregon profs are liberal, with gusts of up to 100, it's they who will have their tongues cut out.

Woo hoo! Time to hoist them by their own petard and start getting offended every time some leftist prof starts spouting some socialist bullshit.

It is so odd that all these subjects are such a problem in universities today.
I have a BS degree from Florida State and an MBA from George Washington University and I NEVER had a professor discuss any of these topics....ever. Why don’t professors just teach. Why even discuss race, religion, sex, sexual orientation or anything other then the subjects they are paid to teach. Very strange. Professors are certainly the problem for letting themselves get caught up with identity politics.

The truth is a scary thing to those that are truly evil.
