[quote=Anonymous]As a leftist myself, with a kid in law school at UChicago, I find myself very impressed with its classical liberal approach to speech and education - anyone can say what they want, but they should be prepared to make an intellectual defense of their views because they can expect to have their ideas rigorously challenged on their merits. But a speaker will not be shouted down or banned from campus because of their opinions. It is distressing to me that this approach sometimes leads liberals to consider UChicago a conservative institution. My good friend is a History professor at a liberal arts college. He was offended to hear that UChicago Law School was hosting Jeff Sessions for a lecture. I was disappointed that he thought a law school should ban a former Attorney General of the United States from speaking to law students because of his ideological point of view![/quote]
