Freedom of Speech on the College Campus? Not if You Are Conservative

More proof, if any were needed, that the left in this country, who constantly screech about diversity, only mean it when it's their views being expressed. Apparently, anything goes if it can stop conservative voices from being heard.

Inside Politics - The Washington Times: Inside Politics - December 01, 2004: "The entire run of the November issue of the Yale Free Press, a conservative student publication, was stolen from the university's campus over the Thanksgiving break, 'horrified' student editor Diana Feygin said yesterday.
Although she has received some support from Yale, Miss Feygin 'wished the administration were more proactive in its investigation,' the Yale Daily News reported.
The stolen issues contained a poll asking students whether they felt political freedom in the classroom was an issue at Yale. Miss Feygin and her staff were mystified that thieves couldn't 'disagree in a way that's more helpful.'
Nationally, theft of conservative collegiate newspapers is not uncommon, she said. The California Patriot, a conservative monthly at the University of California at Berkeley, was stolen repeatedly in 2002.
In 1999, Light & Truth, another Yale conservative publication, was discarded by freshman counselors because they felt it 'encouraged freshmen to skip sexual-education lectures held during orientation.' "
