of a problem on campuses. In the article, “Hiding From Scary Ideas,” Judith Shulevitz mentions many incidents where safe spaces have done more harm than good. I believe that colleges should put a greater priority on protecting speech, even if it is “unpopular” or disturbing.

It is undoubted that Shakespeare was one of the most important people in England; because he elevated the social developments in England during the monarchs of Queen Elizabeth I…
