A new mold?

Considering the motivation behind Take Back Georgetown Day

It began last fall, when flyers started appearing around campus, the letters TBGD emblazoned across them. Take Back Georgetown Day was coming to Georgetown: speakers were announced, registration began and, in the weeks just before the conference, a resolution calling for “Academic Freedom” was introduced in the GUSA. Then, last Saturday, ready to take it back, the conservatives came to campus. In the process, they began a controversy over just what free speech means on campus – and then exacerbated it.

Ignoring Iran could be a deadly decision

President George W. Bush has always claimed he can recognize and defeat threats more effectively than his political rivals. Unfortunately, he has yet to succeed on the latter and tends to bungle the former.
