Free Speech on Campus


Here is a wonderful op ed from the Sunday, October 18, 2015 Milwaukee Journal Sentinel which points out how colleges have strayed from their purpose of teaching, and have instead adopted the promotion of narrow-mindedness. 

If a college community is threatened by opposing viewpoints, I question whether the people in that community know what they believe and whether they can even logically defend it. 

Liberal indoctrination has replaced critical thinking on many, if not most, college campuses. It is good to see some voices beginning to speak out. We are, after all, a nation of free speech, whether college campuses want to honor it or not. 

Here is the op ed, written by Zach Messitte, president of Ripon College
