Trump to order colleges to back free speech or lose funding


Trump's definition of "free speech" - anything that agrees with him and anything that amounts to alt-right hate speak!
Here comes yet another flurry of lawsuits!

President Donald Trump is expected to order U.S. colleges to protect free speech on their campuses or risk losing federal funding.

White House officials say Trump on Thursday will sign an executive order requiring colleges to certify that their policies support free speech as a condition of receiving federal research grants.

Trump initially proposed the idea during a March 2 speech to conservative activists. The Republican president highlighted the case of activist Hayden Williams, who was punched in the face while recruiting at the University of California, Berkeley.

{The University itself assaulted him or encouraged others to do so?}


Berkeley and other colleges have countered that they already have policies protecting free speech and don't need an executive order.

The new order will not jeopardize schools' access to student financial aid that covers tuition.

Officials say implementation details will be worked out in the coming months.

Reading INTO a subject here Crogin?

Conservative, Liberal, Pragmatists ALL have EQUAL rights as to speech in the US. On Federally Funded or Aided College campus they should ALL be allowed or I agree, funds reallocated to those that abide by the First Amendment.

I would rather pay to go to a university that doesnt allow free speech (which is vastly over rated) than pay to go to one that cant award degrees or credits towards a degree

If "Conservative, Liberal, Pragmatists ALL have EQUAL rights as to speech in the US." what is the point of his new executive order ?

Will the Federal Government now be responsible for the damage done when one of their "good people" incites a riot because Trump says hate speech is now free speech that you can control on your property without loosing your ... your NSA funding of basic research ?


And by the way, if the GOP is for free speech why do limit doctors from giving complete medical advise ?

Florida Law Barring Doctors From Asking Patients If They Own Guns Is ...
https://www.buzzfeednews.com/.../florida-law-barring-doctors-from-asking-patients-if...
Feb 16, 2017 - A federal appeals court said doctors could ask about a patient's gun ... if they owned guns unless they believed in "good faith" that the information was ... argument that the law wasn't a free speech restriction but was rather a ...

AND "The Trump administration's draft final rule for the Title X Family Planning Program, called the “Gag Rule,” forces any medical provider receiving federal assistance to refuse to “perform, promote, refer for, or support abortion as a method of family planning.”

In other words, if a doctor simply mentions that abortion exists to a low-income patient — just informing them that abortion is a safe, legal option for women would be considered tantamount to promoting abortion — the entire facility would lose access to federal funds to help those patients pay for birth control."

Currently Liberal CONTROLLED or Managed College campus have been denying Open Speech from Conservatives, find it against their typical beliefs.

You want to go to a Liberally based College and NO freedom f speech then find somewhere that does NOT take a Federal Dime. Currently that eliminates 99% of US Campus.

I dont recall any of these complaints about universities curtailing free speech when college police were beating Occupy WallStreet protesters

Why are rich establishing paying bribes to get their kids in.

The Ivy League bastions of the establishment are "liberal" ?
Conservatives would have nothing if they could not have things two different was at once, as the flavor of the day.

Speaking of having it two ways at once, what does the word liberal mean to you ?
It is NOT just pejorative adjective meaning not like you always are.

How about a uni that allows free speech and awards degrees by what you deserve?
