Republicans propose legislation penalizing public colleges that restrict free speech

[Free Vulcan]

Republican Senators introduced legislation to protect the First Amendment rights of students at public universities.

If passed, a review process would be set up within the Department of Education to determine whether speech policies at public colleges and universities infringe on students' First Amendment rights. If a school fails that process, it could lose some federal funding.
"No public institution of higher education directly or indirectly receiving financial assistance under this Act should restrict the speech of such institution’s students through improperly restrictive zones, codes, or bias reporting systems.’   

The legislation would prohibit public colleges from restricting free speech on campus, as well as require private colleges and universities to disclose their policies on free expression, and obligate private institutions to uphold those policies fairly.

From what I've seen in the article, it does nothing about the most favorite method Colleges and Universities use to crack down on conservative speech:  Their withholding of security for events they know will draw violent protestors.  AFAIK, conservative clubs aren't even able to bring in their own security.
