PHOENIX – Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey signed a measure Monday opening all state college and university campuses to unfettered speech, ending a policy of establishing specific zones where people can speak freely.
"The First Amendment right of free speech is a bedrock founding principle of our republic," Ducey, a Republican, said in a statement about the measure. "Likewise, part of the university experience is to be able to express diverse views, openly, without fear of retribution or intimidation – and to be exposed to other views and perspectives, even if they aren't politically correct or popular."
BOSTON – Controversy seems to follow the Olympic Games around the globe, from the original logo devised for the 2020 games in Tokyo to the aborted Boston 2024 bid and a series of concerns surrounding this year's games in Rio de Janiero.
But organizers of the Tokyo games offered a solution to at least one of those controversies that features a gesture towards inclusivity.
