"Often university administrations indulge students who think that it's a legitimate form of expression to occupy buildings and eject deans from their offices, to obstruct passageways, to invade classrooms chanting slogans over bullhorns. Even if you are a First Amendment advocate, there are legitimate restrictions on time, place, and... manner of expression of speech. I'm fully in favor of public expression of opinions, but that doesn't mean that I want someone invading my bedroom chanting, you know, build the wall at 3 a.m. There are legitimate grounds for preserving private spaces, and universities ought to have a consistent policy of not allowing students to shut down the university, invade classrooms, take over libraries, and so on."show more

Elon Musk: Here's why I'm in favor of the AfD. “The reason that I am in favor of AfD is that there are some fundamental things that must happen, without which I'm concerned that Germany will fail. There have to be sensible controls on immigration. If there are criminals in Germany who are committing crimes and hurting people in Germany, they must be deported. And that's not happening. Then there must also be freedom of speech, such that the people know what the truth is. Otherwise, they cannot make an informed decision. If you do not have freedom of speech, you cannot be a democracy because the public cannot make an informed decision about their vote. In Germany right now, there are draconian rules against freedom of expression where even insulting a politician can get you prison time, which is insane. So, I like the fact that the AfD is in favor of freedom of speech, in favor of sensible immigration policies and deportation of criminals, and I like the generally libertarian policies of the AfD.” WELT Economic Summit, January 28, 2025

Trump on Chinese students in American universities: "If you want to see a university system die, take half a million people out of it. They would be dying all over the place. I frankly think it's good that people come from other countries and learn our culture."

We recently had the privilege of hosting Pico Iyer at Mahindra University & what a gift that was for our students. Pico is one of the most distinctive global essayists of our time. From ‘Video Night in Kathmandu’ to ‘The Art of Stillness,’ & through decades of writing for Time ( I used to wait eagerly for each issue that contained his essay) & other international publications, he’s explored travel, identity, solitude and what it means to live thoughtfully in an increasingly restless world. What made the day even more meaningful was that this was his first visit to an Indian university. And then to hear him speak so warmly about the students, their attentiveness, their questions, their openness meant a great deal to all of us. Universities are not defined by their buildings. They’re defined by the quality of conversation that happens within them. When a thinker like Pico connects so naturally with our young minds, it reassures us that we are building something that goes beyond just classrooms. Because at Mahindra University, we aim not only to build competence, but character. Not only careers, but curiosity. My thanks to Pico for reminding us that in a noisy, troubled world, stillness & serious reflection may be the ultimate form of progress. Mahindra University

.David Sacks is questioned about the congressional testimony of the Presidents of Harvard, Penn, and MIT and whether students should be able to march around campus chanting phrases like "from the river to the sea" and "intifada"? "I have a very high bar for free speech. So I would allow almost everything. The problem that these university presidents have is that's not their position. They're trying to wrap themselves in the cloak of freedom of speech and academic freedom, but that has not been their practice on campus for many years. On a previous program, we talked about the FIRE survey, which polled students about how free they feel to express opinions on campus. The results were dismal for the Ivy League... And in fact, remember that Harvard got the Blutarsky, a zero point zero. The students there reported that speakers were shouted down, they weren't even invited, and they weren't allowed to continue and finish their speeches. So, Harvard has an abysmal record on freedom of speech. So it's hard to believe the President of Harvard when she claims that she's standing up for freedom of speech. And if you were to apply that same standard to other groups... Imagine if representatives at that hearing had said to the President of Harvard, are you allowed to advocate for genocide of black people or trans people? I mean, would the answer have been the same? I think absolutely not. So the question is, why are Jews being treated differently than these other groups? And I think this all goes back to woke identity politics, where in the woke ideology, certain groups are victim groups, and certain groups are oppressor groups. And if you're in a victim group, you get special protections. And if you're in an oppressor group, then it's just assumed that you can't really suffer discrimination or injustice in that same way. And I think that Jews have basically been put in an oppressor group. They basically are being placed in the same group as all white people. And I think this has come as a great surprise to a lot of donors to these university campuses, who I think we're okay with woke identity politics to some degree when they believed that Jewish people were a potential victim group and that antisemitism was being treated as real. And lo and behold, they found out that no, they're an oppressor group, and they're not protected. And even very explicit cases of antisemitism are not being recognized by these universities. Because, again, it doesn't match up with this woke ideology. It would have been a lot better for a lot of these donors to realize that woke identity politics was a cul de sac. It was something that they should have wanted to avoid participating in. But I think they're now waking up to the realization that in this, again, oppressor-oppressed dichotomy, they're on the wrong side of that." Via The All-In Podcast:

Students Rise Across Iran: “Death to Khamenei” Echoes Through Universities On the very first day of universities reopening, students across Iran took to the streets and campus grounds, chanting slogans against the regime and directly against Khamenei. Student protests, reported at Tehran University, Sharif University, and Polytechnic University, were met with violent confrontations by Basij forces stationed on campus. On day one, students sent a clear message to the dictator: they will not be intimidated by Khamenei’s killers and terrorists. #IranMassacre

That's a sacrifice for a lot of people. If you don't think like coming to Austin for 100 hours a week and jamming on AI unpaid and just building stuff to figure out how much you can learn and hopefully getting a job on the other side... if you don't think that's awesome, that's totally fine. Please don't come." "There are some psychos out there that think that that's a good time. We wanna collect all those psychos. So come all, come all ye crazy people. And if that's not for you, that's okay." "There are companies that come to us and say, "Hey, we want, you know, 100 engineers that are going to sit in our division of printer drivers and sit there." And I'm like, "They would kill themselves." The people that are coming to Gauntlet would not do that. And so we turn companies down too." So we know who we are, we know what we stand for. You know, it helps that I'm one of those people that would've loved that. So is Ash Tilawat, and so is everybody else that works at Gauntlet. "So it's not hard for us to find other crazy people like ourselves. And that doesn't have to be you. That's okay." "We're not trying to empire build or solve all of humanity's greatest problems. We know that there's a limit to who we're addressing and what we're addressing at any given time." "So our goal is to be the best thing we can possibly be for that weird island of misfits. And for the companies that need a weird island of misfits, we'll be that all day long."

Before my arrest, my team and I were bruised and battered, thrown to the ground, and zip-cuffed. This was not my first protest arrest, but it was unnervingly violent. The students are exercising their constitutionally protected right to free expression at the risk of violence and injury from university authorities, police and counter-protestors. If you have the opportunity to join an encampment near you, please do so. The more community support these students have, the harder it will be for silencers to justify their actions to crush this dissent.

The University as a Joke: My UNIABUJA UNIVERSITY OF ABUJA Experience When the Students’ Union Government of the University of Abuja, led by Comrade Yusuf Tobi Jamiu, invited me for an interactive session with students, I was skeptical. Given the recent decline in the courage and independence of students’ unions across Nigeria, I didn’t expect much. Still, I decided to give it a try. I came straight from Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport to the University. An advance team already on the ground hinted that something was off; they couldn’t locate the Students’ Union President on time, and the hall reserved for the event looked deserted. Soon after, one of them informed me that the university authorities had cancelled the program. Not long after, Comrade Jamiu himself reached out to say the event would still hold. So, I headed to the university gate. There, I was stopped by campus security, who bluntly told me the management had declared my visit “unacceptable.” They claimed the Students’ Union had no permission to host me on campus. I alighted from the vehicle and sat on a dilapidated chair by the gate, refusing to leave immediately a silent protest. As I sat there, I witnessed a scene that summed up the death of our university system, a female student was barred from entering the campus for “improper dressing.” When I asked if the university bought clothes for its students, the confused security men eventually allowed her in, perhaps to avoid a scene. Moments later, Comrade Jamiu arrived to apologise, visibly helpless. I couldn’t help but wonder whether he had been elected to lead or to kneel, to represent the students or to appease the school authorities. After a brief conversation, I left saddened but not surprised. What I saw at the University of Abuja was not an institution of learning, but a graveyard of courage and ideas. Our universities are dying — not for lack of resources, but for lack of integrity, independence, and freedom. Nigerian universities are dead. What remains is the struggle to resurrect them.

🐊University of Florida President Dr. Ben Sasse: I have four simple messages. First, to the Floridians who pay our bills: The University of Florida will always uphold speech and assembly rights, and we will also always follow the law. Too much of higher education has been captured by a lot of nonsense over the course of the last weeks, and that won't happen at the University of Florida. To the law enforcement officers who have kept things peaceful: Thank you. Your professionalism has been amazing. Over the course of the last two weeks in particular, you have been long suffering, giving protestors the right to exercise their free speech rights, but also the opportunity to come into compliance with our time, place & manner restrictions. Our goal has not been to arrest. It has been to help people get into compliance with the law. And what you have done in the face of being spit on, being shouted at with profanities, has been amazing. The professionalism of our law enforcement is a model for lots and lots of people across the country. To the protestors: You have heard us say this again and again. You have a constitutional right to protest, and we will protect that. But anyone who crosses the line with prohibited actions will face the consequences. This is a big university where not everyone is going to agree. We have 86,000 souls on this campus, and we will treat each other with respect. Unlike many institutions across the country, I'm incredibly proud that over the course of our 21 commencements over the last six days, we were able to celebrate our students and celebrate their families, which is the purpose of the commencement time. Too often in our time and place, we give the most voice to the loudest and angriest people. The University of Florida is not filled with angry people, and it's been wonderful to see a lot of moms have tears streaming down their cheeks as we were able to hold commencements over the course of the last week. And that's because of the fortitude and professionalism in particular of our law enforcement. And finally, to our Jewish students: UF is proud to be home to the most Jewish students anywhere in the country. This is the most Jewish university in the country, and it is great to be a Jewish gator. I want all of our students to feel safe. But more than the subjective feeling, I want our students to BE safe. And that is true today, and we're glad to have you, and we're excited to celebrate a big future together. FLORIDA Ben Sasse Ron DeSantis

And that is true today, and we're glad to have you, and we're excited to celebrate a big future together. FLORIDA Ben Sasse Ron DeSantis
