...but I will. I plan to send a letter to the Connecticut State University System (of which CCSU is a part). This letter will state that, as an alum of a sister to CCSU, I will be donating exactly zero dollars to CSU (the system organization), CCSU, SCSU, ECSU, or WCSU (the four sister schools). This and that Catherine Crier Incident do not make me proud of a degree from a university with the words "Connecticut State" in them.

F.I.R.E is one such example

Institute for Justice is another.

These people like the chick teacher are only as wacky as we let them. Start suing these people, and they will tone down their wackness.

The kid’s going to be on campus for a grand total of four years, I don’t expect he wants to turn this incident into the centerpiece of his college experience. It was an idiotic overreaction by a minor professor teaching a throw-away class.

The unfortunate thing is that she’s probably managed to guarantee herself tenure over this; she’ll be able to portray herself as a victim of the vast right-win-conspiracy to the tenure committee and a warrior in support of political correctness (or whatever clever term the intelligencia use for it).

Future students should expect more of the same.

Unfortunately, it appears that the student, Mr. Wahlberg, is not interested in making this a bigger deal.

is exactly what I thought of, too. They will indeed help.

We’ve had similar problems in Florida and contacts in the Legislature and Congress were immensely helpful. Not so sure about Connecticut.

as long as you aren’t refering to diversity of ideas, perhaps so.
Where is the ACLU when this happens? I guess you just have to be lucky to be in the right place at the right time to have your case take as a “loss leader”. You know, those fringe ridiculous cases they take up occasionally whereby some fringe nut case’s rights are championed so as to be able to say with a straight face, ” see, we help aaallll ideas and viewpoints.” Someone exercising their Constitutional right, hell no!

Central Connecticut STATE University most likely takes STATE funds.

Mr. Wahlberg shoud contact his state represntative and senator, and ask them to invesitgate.

He should also file a complaint through his school (FIRE will most likely be glad to help) and force “Professor” Anderson to defend her actions publicly.

Ms. Anderson has climbed out on a branch, and taken CCSU with her. Mr. Wahlberg holds a saw.
