“We need some First Amendment training at this university.” — Rob Capriccioso Comments The irony drips I will softcore never understand why schools think that it is acceptable to compel students that are being “punished” for expressing views to express views about the danger of expressing views. This story is probably missing some key points regarding the school’s process, and whether softcore the students investigated the possibility of suing their school, but otherwise it is just dripping with irony. At a very minimum, a lawsuit against the school would probably softcore shed some light on what kind of comments the school considers to be acceptable (e.g. good ones) and what kinds they consider unacceptable. Kors’ comments are sort of strange, too. He admits that he understands that the comments were hyperbole, but then he claims that they “cross a different line.” What line is this? While it might be libelous in New York to claim that someone has a “social disease” comments meant as hyperbole are, obviously, not meant to be taken literally.
