Free speech advocate David Horowitz urged Florida legislators Tuesday to pass a bill that would restore freedom of speech on college campuses long dominated by liberal faculties.
"It is not the place of teachers to force conclusions on controversial matters," Horowitz told the House Education Council, according to the Palm Beach Post. "This is not a controversial bill. It has been made controversial by people who have a vested interest in keeping universities as their political platforms."
Right on, Right ON! I think of the Kinks' "Education"...
Teacher, teach me how to read and write,
You can teach me about biology,
But you can't tell me what I am living for
'Cos that's still a mystery.
Teacher, teach me about nuclear physics
And teach me about the structure of man,
But all your endless calculations
Can't tell me why I am.
No you can't tell me why I am,
No you can't tell me why I am.
This was the song that kept me going during CA's Prop 174. Call it my "campaign theme song" of then.
