Purdue University and its Double Standard

Last year, I wrote a blog piece about a University colleague criticizing that colleague's actions and ideas (here). I am not generally known for subltely; I call it like I see it.  This colleague - Professor Yahya Kamalipour - promotes himself in the public domain, speaks and writes prolifically for public consumption.  In response to my criticism, Professor Kamalipour, along with Professor Fewer, have decided that my speech is "hate" speech and that I am a "bully". (See here).

There is hypocrisy all over academia when it comes to free speech and academic freedom. One only needs to see the "dis-invitations" this season to speakers. Kamalipour is the new standard; I am sad to say the President Mitch Daniels is going along with the silencing of conservative criticism.

Kamalipour has now become, after Mitch Daniels, the arbiter of what is proper to say, i.e. civil, and what is not, bullying. This from a man, Kamalipour, who has stated over and over his hatred for Jews.

These are the events of freedom in American universities -- run by Republicans or Democrats. Have none read the Bill of Rights?
