Is the Left Losing on UW campus
Tip of the hat to Wendy for emailing me this.
The link above and here is to an article by Charlie Sykes about a Political Correct "rat out anyone who offends you" effort by a misguided Dean who seems to be channeling 'La Donna' A.K.A. Donna Shalala the PC queen who managed to repress free speech for students for about 10 years ( and for 17? years for Faculty) with her institution of speech codes.
They were struck down 3 times by Federal Judge Shabazz. The last case was the speech code for faculty. He wrote in the next to last judgement that perhaps the law faculty-who were backing the code even after he told them in the first judgement it was unlawful- should "read the constitution and Bill of Rights once in awhile" or something to that effect.
These things tend to be horribly one sided in reporting. Example: when the political and physical;y heavy Michael Moore was on campus during the 2004 Presidential race, the college republicans demonstrated against him near the Memorial Union. They had urine thrown on them for daring to confront the monolithic Lefties.
They dutifully reported the incident and who they thought had done it to a Dean of students in charge of such incidents. They "investigated" for a couple of days and then let it drop.
In this case (Nov 07) Charlie Sykes point out the students just ignored the dumb campaign and then the UW let it drop.
