Jack Weinberg, who was arrested on campus in 1964 for violating school codes on activism and sparked a wave of protests to change them, said he found “the whole thing despicable.” “When you suppress ideas, you also increase interest in those ideas,” Weinberg said. “It’s under- standable that people want to stop it, but it doesn’t work.” Hamilton, New York. He sees it as a genera- tional divide, a notion that’s supported by some polling data. A 2015 survey by the Pew Research Center, for example, found that 40 percent of people ages 18 to 34 supported government censorship of statements offensive to minorities. Only 24 percent of people ages 51 to 69 agreed. The literary group PEN America has also warned free speech is being threatened at colleges. As students and admin- istrators strive to make campuses more hospitable to diverse student bodies, some have wrongly silenced speech that makes certain students feel uncomfortable, said Suzanne Nossel, the group’s director. “The university has dual imperatives.

While some cast the debate as a political battle, pitting protesters on the left against conservative speakers on the right, First Amendment advo- cates warn the line marking acceptable speech could slip if more college students adopt less-than-absolute views on free speech. When UC Berkeley canceled Coulter’s April 27 speech amid threats of violence, it was only the latest example of a speaker with controversial views being blocked from talking.

Outlander The White Princess American Gods NIGHT OWL STATION PBS ABC NBC CBS FOX In campus clashes from California to Vermont, many defenders of the First Amend- ment say they see signs that free speech, once a bedrock value in academia, is losing ground as a priority at U.S. colleges. As protests have derailed speeches by controversial figures, including an event with Ann Coulter last month at the University of California, Berkeley, some fear students have come to see the right to free expression less as an enshrined measure of protec- tion for all voices and more as a political weapon used against them by provocateurs. “I think minority groups and those who feel alienated are especially skeptical about free speech these days,” said Jeffrey Herbst, leader of the Newseum, a Wash- ington group that defends the First Amendment. “But the powerful can get their message across any number of ways. It’s those who feel powerless or alienated who really benefit from enshrined rights.” On Wednesday, students at the historically black Bethune-Cookman Univer- sity in Florida tried to shout down a commencement address by Education Secre- tary Betsy DeVos, who said during her speech, “Let’s choose to hear one another out.” Students and alumni At Middlebury College in Vermont, author Charles Murray was shouted down by students who accused him of espousing racist views. An event featuring Milo Yiannopoulos at Berkeley was called off after protests over his views on race and transgender people turned violent. In the past year, other speeches have been disrupted or canceled amid student protests at the University of Wisconsin, UC Davis, Brown University, New York University and DePaul University, among others. Today’s students have developed a new under- standing of free speech that doesn’t protect language seen as offensive to minori- ties or others thought to be disenfranchised, said Herbst, also a former presi- dent of Colgate University, a liberal arts school in 11 KPTV 3 (19) KEPR 2 KOIN 19 (25) KNDU 6 KGW 8 (42) KVEW 4 KATU 5 (11) KFFX 12 AM 12:30 :05 Friends :35 Hot In 1 AM 1:30 2 AM 2:30 3 AM 3:30 :05 CR TV 2 Broke G.
