The State of Higher Education

During my hiatus I've seen a lot of articles and stories about the state of higher education.  Some of them are, frankly, hard to believe.  I mean, if there is anywhere in the country where different ideas should be welcomed and discussed, it is the nation's colleges and universities.  You've seen the stories.  Students are demanding safe spaces.  They don't like offensive speech.  I really don't know how some of these folks are going to live in the real world, but it's a bit worrisome.  I've even seen people agreeing that the 1st Amendment guaranteeing freedom of speech should be repealed.  Hard to believe but true.  I'm sure we've not seen the last of this idiocy.

My experience is more like this.
