But for a presidential candidate, the McCarthy humor was a handicap, Sheed says, since it made him sound like "a 13th century eccentric, a man of crazed frivolity."

...that must be made against disruption of classes. This argument need not be based on the simple-minded assertion that the preservation of the right to teach and learn within the University is an absolute moral imperative.
