NEW HAVEN, Conn. – A satirist went to Yale University recently to stage what may be a revealing spoof on campus, posing as an activist and asking passersby to sign a petition to repeal the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution – more than 50 did.
Filmmaker Ami Horowitz appears in a video approaching people and asking them if they would sign the petition to repeal the part of the country's founding document that guarantees freedom of expression, the press, assembly and religion.
CAMBRIDGE — Harvard College administrators earlier this week apologized for placing in college dining halls "holiday placemats for social justice," which featured a list of talking points for dealing with politically incorrect family members over the holiday break.
The placemats included a four-topic primer on how students can explain Harvard's decision to dump the "house master" title, defend policies welcoming Syrian refugees, argue in favor of establishing "safe spaces" and convince skeptics that blacks are treated unfairly by police.
