At the University of Oregon, no more free speech for professors on subjects such as race, religion, sexual orientation: The only side of a debate that's allowed to speak is the one with the biggest mob, and for us that would be the radical feminist misandrist side.

The lack of understanding by some students, coupled with an existing lack of diversity in the law school student body, has led to minority students feeling further disenfranchised from their classmates and the school. Some students have been missing class, avoiding the law school, and changing their study habits in an attempt to avoid the resulting negative environment.

Translation: some students have been using the incident as an excuse for cutting classes and not completing their assignments on time.

It depends how they carry it out. This seems like a response to the Communist Drexel professor who said that he wished for White genocide for Christmas, and that the Whites killed in Haiti was a good thing. These types of comments shouldn't be allowed for professors IMO.

Now obviously, there's a big difference between wishing for a genocide and being called a racist every time you slightly disagree with another group.

I disagree with your idea that radical feminist misandrists are the majority. I don't think they are, and other students are starting to speak out against them. The average person no longer agrees with them.

That's pretty absurd. Reason number 72 that I'm glad I didn't go there for law school.

Is there a centralized list of these totalitarian indoctrination centres? It's really time to start using BDS tactics on these traitors to the enlightenment.

Or for suggesting that there are, on average, biological differences in temperament or talents between men and women.

Lawrence Summers was forced to resign as president of Harvard years ago because of this. It wasn't even public comments, it was a private discussion. But he brought up the fact that there are studies showing that men have a larger variance in IQ than women, meaning that there are more men with very high IQs and also more men with very low IQs. This was in a discussion about whether or not sexism is entirely responsible for there being more male than female STEM professors.

There's a lack of good research on men's issues, or on gender issues at all from a non-feminist bias, and the obvious reason is that universities around the country have long been suppressing any opposing views.

But according to the university’s logic, a faculty member could be disciplined for displaying the Mohammed cartoons, if it caused enough of a furor. Or a faculty member could be disciplined for suggesting that homosexuality may be immoral or dangerous. Or for stating that biological males who view themselves as female should be viewed as men, not as women. Or for suggesting that there are, on average, biological differences in temperament or talents between men and women.

I'm trying to find something unreasonable here. Pretty standard shit here; none of which has anything to do with men's rights.

Basically, keep your mouth shut about your personal opinions concerning morality and other things that have nothing to do with teaching law.
