Cambridge University Just Delivered A Clear Victory For Free Speech


Cambridge University Just Delivered A Clear Victory For Free Speech
December 21, 2020
College campuses have recently become a major battleground for free speech. For a while, however, it seemed advocates for censoring speeches and canceling speakers were winning.
Just last week, professor Joseph Epstein, currently a lecturer at Northwestern University, was effectively canceled by the university after he wrote an op-ed criticizing Jill Biden, wife of Joe Biden, for insisting on using the honorific “Dr.” in front of her name because she has a Ph.D. in education.

Campaigners say 'common sense has prevailed' after Cambridge academics' free speech vote


Campaigners have hailed a victory for free speech after academics at Cambridge University rejected demands that views remain respectful .
Dons opted instead to support tolerance of differing opinions instead of respect - a term which made critics fearful that it could crush freedom of expression.
The vote yesterday has resulted in widespread praise as campaigners claim common sense prevailed .   
Index on Censorship, a nonprofit that campaigns for and defends free expression worldwide, said there was much relief at the organisation after the results of the vote were announced. 
They called it a vote in support of free expression and said respect is something that should be earned and not forced.  ....
