for those looking for more sources on this, look at the Sun’s video with Ezra Levant and student Arun Smith; as well here on campus, in a few minutes (between 11:30-noon today) will be a brief segment featuring Arun Smith and the president of the organization which posted the wall.
The former, is a typical Sun feature. But provided more insight into the student’s persective.

I hope that the Dean’s response could be posted in the National Post to allow their readers a different perspective on the incident.

I agree completely with this post. More importantly, I know that even if I didn’t, my comment would be left uncensored – not unchallenged, but uncensored. That is the way it has to be in a university.

I was also disturbed by Rex Murphy’s view that narrow-minded intolerance is somehow endemic to university culture. He needs to be reminded that there are 24,000 students at Carleton, 23,999 of whom made no attempt to suppress the opinions on the ‘Free Speech Wall’, whether they agreed with them or not.
