It’s amazing to think that these colleges are supposed to be places of free speech and free inquiry.
They celebrate artistic freedom with an obscene play (The Vagina Monologues). They celebrate leftist speakers. They celebrate leftist ideas. But they try to censor and shut down any conservative ideas or thoughts.
What does that tell us about their committments to the concept of freedom of speech and free inquiry?
If Sarah Palin is so full of it, they should be able to pick apart her arguments piece by piece. They could have Sarah on the ropes (figuratively speaking) in a Q and A session, if they have the answers to the opinions which Sarah will express.
But instead of any challenges to leftist orthodoxy, they want to just shut down debate. Hmmmm...............
If anyone on this earth expects and awaits action by any college dean or president, then I hope they have large stocks of provisions to sustain their wait.
If anyone on this earth expects and awaits civilized action by the STUDENT BODY of our liberal colleges then good luck.
If anyone is familiar with the historical definition of STUDENT, they will know that be a STUDENT, one acknowledges that one DOES NOT KNOW and is seeking to KNOW.
These twerps do not know..neither do they wish to know.
Personally, I believe they have wonderful grounds for a Class Action Suit to obtain a full tuition refund plus damages.
Exactly.
That is the real story here-The media treatment,spin and headline bias.
That someone expressing their ideas in a speech invites and necessitates “pushback”.
