A philosophy/journalism major gave us the tour. At one point, we arrived at a location which was designated for free speech, and the tour guide noted that it was one of X number of locations in the entire state which was specifically designated for totally free speech.
He didn't say, "Isn't it great that we have this area for free speech? That's why I love America."
And he didn't say, "Which raises the question, why aren't there more spaces designated for free speech in our state?"
No.
He provided a warning to us that we need to be very careful how we use that speech area. Twice. He warned us twice that we should self-censor, and maybe decide not to exercise our free speech rights in the designated free speech location.
Honestly, he treated that free speech zone as if it were a deadly weapon. He did not seem to be happy that it was there.
This is a journalism major, mind you. And, he doesn't want you to be using your free speech rights.
He lost me for the rest of the tour. I wondered how I could possibly justify sending my kid to that school. And then I wondered if the other schools teach the same, but just hide it better.
