INTERVIEW – SCOTT GREER – Daily Caller Deputy Editor and author of “No Campus for White Men.” (IN STUDIO)
- ABOUT BOOK: No Campus for White Men shines a bright light on the growing obsession with diversity, victimization and identity politics on today’s college campuses, and shows how it is creating an intensely hostile and fearful atmosphere that can only lead, ultimately, to ever greater polarization in American society. Across the country, ugly campus protests over speakers with dissenting viewpoints, as well as a preoccupation with “micro-aggressions,” “trigger warnings,” “safe spaces” and brand-new “gender identities,” make it obvious that something has gone terribly wrong with higher education. For years, colleges have pursued policies favoring students based not on their merit, but on their race, gender, and sexual orientation. The disturbingly negative effects of this culture are now impossible to deny.
- Mike Pence Makes Some Students Feel ‘Unsafe’ At Notre Dame. Vice President Mike Pence is scheduled to deliver the commencement address at the University of Notre Dame. But that’s not sitting well with some of the students, Campus Reform reports. Students Immane Mondane and Jourdyhn Williams are agitating to cancel that invitation with a #NotMyCommencementSpeaker hashtag that will feature students holding white boards with “direct quotes from Pence that are racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, offensive, or ostracizing to members of our community.” Campus Reform reports that the students add, “You may also write about why you feel unsafe with the presence of Mike Pence on our campus.”
- University’s LGBT Students ‘Fear’ Arrival Of Chick-fil-A // The latest thing to threaten university students’ ‘safe spaces’: Chicken sandwiches. A student senator at Duquesne University proposed last month during a Student Government Association that the group pass a resolution urging the university to reconsider their plans to bring a Chick-fil-A to campus because it might not make LGBTQ students feel like they are in a safe place. “I’ve tried very hard within the last semester and a half to promote this safe environment for the LGBTQ+ community,” Coury said. “So I fear that with the Chick-fil-A being in Options that maybe people will feel that safe place is at risk.”
