‘Words Have Lost the Connection with Reality’: Law Professors Debate Merit of Ann Coulter ’84 Visits, Pro-Palestine Encampments
Visiting scholars contextualized and compared free speech in educational environments at a debate entitled “Are Universities Failing to Provide a Culture of Free Speech and Open Inquiry?” on Thursday, April 23 in Warren Hall. Shapiro argued that universities are overall succeeding at protecting free speech while Franks argued they are not. Shapiro and Franks also debated if the administration reacted responsibly to protesters throughout Coulter’s repeated visits to Cornell. “We have to understand that certain actions are not speech,” Shapiro said. “The people who want to put them in harm’s way — those people are not on the side of free speech, and they are not on the right side of history.”
