Free Speech Efforts on Campus Face Uphill Battle in California
Jonathan Butcher / @JM_Butcher / May 02, 2018 / comments
A California venture capitalist has gathered enough signatures to put before voters this fall the idea of breaking his state into three.
Skeptics say the proposal will fare no better than previous efforts to do the same, yet the state is already politically fractured—and nowhere are the fissures more evident than on the state’s college campuses.
The Young America’s Foundation and the Berkeley College Republicans have found a yawning gap between what school administrators say about free speech on campus and their actions. University of California, Berkeley administrators say they “[do] not discriminate against speakers invited by student organizations based upon viewpoint.†Students say recent events demonstrate otherwise, and they’re taking Berkeley to court.
