Maybe a drop in alumni donations will elicit a much-needed evaluation of student activity expenditures.

Too bad Whitehorn wasn't working in the WTC on 9-11-01.

"This is really a free speech issue," she said of the campus controversy. "The most important thing in college is to listen to different viewpoints and then you make up your mind. ... If we can shut people up and so easily intimidate them, then we’re back in the ’50s."

So? When are they inviting David Duke to speak?? How about
the head of the American Nazi party??

Colleges are very selective abuot the type of nutcases they invite to speak. Only anit-American, anti-white, anti-Christian type nutcases allowed. The other nutcases are barred.

Thanks.

Here is a link to the earlier thread.

It looks like the terrorist's remarks may be open to the public. I wonder if any NC freepers might wish to attend?

As I recall, it's on 3/3/2003.
That's far enough in advance that I should definitely be able to make it.

Excellent! Then the next Billy Graham crusade will be on the Duke campus?

No? Oh, I forgot. "Hate speech" is different....

By the way, I did get a response from Jerry Agar.
He had already mentioned this by the time I e-mailed him, and said he would do so again.

Will Duke be the next University to have Mumia give a commencement address?

a woman it calls a convicted terrorist

I wonder why they call her that?

Could it be because she is a convicted terrorist?

Excellent.

Do you have, or can you borrow a videocam?

Perhaps Ms. Whitehead's remarks would be of interest to a wider audience...

I have a Panasonic Digital Palmcorder.
I have never done it, but we could upload the video to the 'Net with it, I believe.
