How does freedom of speech or just speech undermines education and defeats the purpose of public colleges and universities?

America’s colleges and universities have historically been treated as havens for free speech, laboratories of thought where diverse viewpoints and ideas can be discussed and debated in an endless search for truth and knowledge.  The Supreme Court has long recognized that our institutions of higher education serve an important societal purpose beyond classroom instruction, that the modern university campus “is peculiarly the ‘marketplace of ideas.'”[1]   Therefore, the Court has traditionally held that college students are entitled to robust speech rights so that they may speak freely and contribute to the exchange of ideas.[2]

However, a major threat to this model of the American university has presented itself:  Colleges and universities across the country have enacted “speech codes” broadly regulating how students are allowed to speak on campus.  Speech codes are “university regulations prohibiting expression that would be constitutionally protected in society at large,”[3] or “any campus regulation that punishes, forbids, heavily regulates, or restricts a substantial amount of protected speech.”[4]  Speech codes violate students’ free speech rights,[5] often by taking aim at any expression deemed by university administrators to be uncivil, offensive, or disagreeable.  They have proliferated on college campuses despite the fact that the courts have indicated that “[s]peech codes are disfavored under the First Amendment because of their tendency to silence or interfere with protected speech.”<span>[6]</span>

The liberty of speech, and to some degree as long as it doesn't constitute non ethical or racist remarks give a person the right to voice their ideas. Institutions such as colleges are landmarks for the teachings of accredited individual's ideas. For a person to voice their own opinion or debate an unaccredited side goes against the institutions teachings.

Differences and similarities between the movie and the book "The Outsiders"? I NEED HELP.
Mrrafil [7]
One difference is in the book the characters soda and sandy were heavily involved, while in the movie soda and sandys relationship is mentioned maybe once. Also in the movie it shows the brothers parents being vividly killed in a car and train crash while in the book it is just said to be an auto accident. In the movie Dally robs a store and gets hurt, while in the novel he robs the store over the phone.

<u>"I understood that he spoke of the great lake of ears of corn that all of us Indians have in our heart and from which we get tiny drops of moonlight . . . "</u>

I believe its this excerpt. It seems to have a much more understanding to me that it also explains the connection between human and nature much more efficient to me than the others tho.


I hope this helps! If that's wrong. I'm terribly sorry.

Book: Stardust by Nail Gaiman

Answer: Chapter 3

In Which We Encounter Several Other Persons, Many of Them Still Alive, With an Interest in the Fate of the Fallen Star

There's this place called the Stormhold. The first lord of Stormhold carved it out of the peak of Mount Huon, where it perches high in the sky among storm clouds.

By now we're onto the 81st lord of Stormhold, and he's on his deathbed, so he summons all his kids, and they come to him, both the dead (the ghosts of Secundus, Quintus, Quartus, and Sextus) and the living (Primus, Tertius, and Septimus).

The dying lord removes his topaz necklace (you know, the one whose wearer, if of Stormhold blood, becomes the ruler of Stormhold) and tosses it out into the night sky. He tells his sons that whoever retrieves it will become the next lord of Stormhold. It glimmers and falls, like a falling star.

The brothers take care of their father's body before setting out to find it, or trying to kill each other. Less competition is better, right?

In another part of Faerie, three old witches, the Lilim, live in a hovel. It's pretty dirty.

The only clean thing in the hovel is a gigantic black mirror… inside of which, three women live, though they aren't old like the witch sisters. Their movements mirror those of the witches, though. Mysterious, right?

One of the sisters cuts open a dead animal to use its entrails to divine. She gets all excited, saying there's a fallen star, and it's about time; they decide to send out the eldest sister to fetch it.

She reaches inside a box for a small golden something that tries to evade her grasp, eats it, and then becomes young and beautiful again (and simultaneously, one of the three women vanishes from the black mirror).

So the witch-queen sets off to reclaim the fallen star. Bad news, we're guessing.

In still another part of Faerie (because it's, like, huge), in a glade, a bright light shines brighter and brighter.

Suddenly it's extinguished, and a female voice says ow and a choice curse word or two.
