...ignore this principle, and they did. Now they should accept responsibility for their actions; doing so, despite the majority's confused view, is a requisite of civil disobedience. The idea that University administrators are to blame for not taking the offensive and actively securing Kent-Brown's right to speak is ludicrous. As members of the Ad Board hear cases stemming from the protest, they should reflect upon their obligation to defend this community's principles against those who seek to constrain the range of views that can be expressed here.

Without minimizing the importance of protecting the right of free speech and movement, this community has experienced enough protest activity to realize that more is at stake.

University principles dictate that students should not make visitors their prisoners, no matter how unpopular the visitors' views.

Swaggart did nothing further until the February convention of National Religious Broadcasters, the trade association for radio-TV preachers. Swaggart was about to speak when the Rev. John Ankerberg, Southern Baptist proprietor of a weekly TV show, approached, knelt down and whispered to him that the Charlotte Observer was hot on the Bakker- Hahn story...
...scrupulously observes the courtesies due the other's office, both expect to be received in equally grand style. They usually travel aboard separate aircraft, hold separate meetings with foreign leaders and are prickly about details, right down to the seating arrangements at banquets. The two leaders have learned to speak for France "with one voice from two mouths," as a member of Chirac's Cabinet puts it, but each makes sure that both mouths are heard...
