Abstract

Censorship is once again in vogue on America’s college and university campuses. The urge to silence one’s opponents is nothing new, as is evidenced by the speaker bans of the 1950s and 60s and the rise of “political correctness” in the 1980s and 90s. But the latest effort to silence dissent comes in perhaps the most clever disguise yet: the guise of psychological, or even medical, need.
