Opinion "Free Speech"
Dublin Core
Title
Opinion "Free Speech"
Description
This is an opinion piece refers to a free speech booth that appeared on campus, highlighting a lack of activism on campus by mentioning "the lack of serious presentation of ideas." This article references a student's demand to end communist nations, where he says "the only good Commie is a dead Commie." The author argues that words are not enough, and that the fact that the Vietnam War continues shows the "inadequacy' of students' voices.
