Reaction #3 Prompt

For your 3rd reaction piece, please read the Washington Post article posted on the blog (https://tvr124fall2017.blogspot.com/2017/10/college-students-and-first-amendment.html) and write a 250-500-word reaction to the article. You may want to consider the following prompts (but you don't have to): 

Should colleges and universities ban controversial speakers from campus? Why or why not? 

Should hate speech be constitutionally protected? Why or why not? 

This last one is from the article: Let’s say a public university hosts a “very controversial speaker,” one “known for making offensive and hurtful statements.” Would it be acceptable for a student group to disrupt the speech “by loudly and repeatedly shouting so that the audience cannot hear the speaker”? Why or why not? 

The assignment is due Sunday, October 8th, 2017 by midnight PDT.

Please post your Reaction to Sakai, under Tests & Quizzes.
