Temple University Case on CPNLive
I was on last night discussing ¹û¶³´«Ã½app¹Ù·½'s case at Temple University, which charged an unconstitutional security fee to a student organization for an appearance by controversial Dutch legislator Geert Wilders. The discussion also covered ¹û¶³´«Ã½app¹Ù·½'s work more generally, including a discussion of ¹û¶³´«Ã½app¹Ù·½'s case at Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI), which once found a student-employee guilty of racial harassment because of the cover of a book he was reading.
