Volokh: At The University Of Oregon: No More Free Speech For Professors On Subjects Such As Race, Religion, Sexual Orientation
This is great. The article, I mean. Not the death of free speech in academia. That's very bad indeed.
Volokh says that professors will likely be hesitant to talk about these subjects...but that isn't right. Professors with PC leftist views won't hesitate to talk about them. But professors with even slightly heterodox views will hesitate--and probably just not talk about them. Which will mean that students will get even more of what they're already getting: one small fragment of one weird, bad perspective on the subjects.
