So why would Colleges and Universities, places known for the swapping of new ideals and being a center of distinct cultures want to restrict this right? Why would public universities ignore Supreme Court cases on speech? Why would they want to challenge the freedom of expression for students and minority groups? It’s said that “If speech is…

many are tired of the way things are run and who runs them. This is probably a reason why Donald Trump landed the republican nominee for the 2016 presidential election. Some people think that because Trump isn’t a politician, he will not conduct himself as a lying and corrupt leader a typical politician is perceived to be.
