The right to free speech


posted on 02. December 2003 at 04:52 PM

Philip Greenspun (of Photo.net and ArsDigita fame) asks: Should [U.S.]
universities permit free speech?

Only a tiny fraction of Americans have a practical right to free speech and these are primarily the very rich and the very poor. A primary mission of a college is to prepare young people for the real world. Does it really make sense to delude kids into thinking that they can say whatever they want and still have a paycheck and health insurance?
