How Do Colleges That Shut Down Conservative Speech Maintain their Accreditation?

Ann Coulter and Milo are not students, though. If someone gets seriously hurt when provocative far right speakers insist on coming to their campus when they have been warned about security issues, maybe the Young Republicans will start rethinking their agenda to invite the most shit-stirring speakers they can find. I think security should handle it and I don't like that this is such an issue, but let's not pretend the Right isn't baiting the hook here.
They are speakers who have been hired to come and speak at considerable cost for the students, then the speech gets canceled for 'safety concerns'.

That is stifling the free speech of the students.
 
But let's not get carried away with how many people are involved in this. How many people are actually involved in these protests--a couple hundred? And how many universities are having this kind of problem with violence? .

The problem is nation wide and the excuses vary from school to school. While Antifa has been particularly violent, the liberals at each university are mostly ideologues who are so certain of their beliefs that they want conservatives to have no voice, and so they get people banned.

Even if it were one person that would be a problem with violation of Constitutional rights, but it is far more than just one.

Blah blah blah.

I agree that hate speech is a conservative thing.

Why do you like hate spewers?
 
There are standards for higher education passed into law that regulate how a school is accredited for consideration for federal student loans and grants, etc.

Among these are the Higher Education Opportunity Act and Section 104 says the following:
SEC. 104. PROTECTION OF STUDENT SPEECH AND ASSOCIATION RIGHTS.
...
``(2) It is the sense of Congress that--
``(A) the diversity of institutions and educational missions
is one of the key strengths of American higher education;
``(B) individual institutions of higher education have
different missions and each institution should design its
academic program in accordance with its educational goals;
``(C) an institution of higher education should facilitate
the free and open exchange of ideas;
``(D) students should not be intimidated, harassed,
discouraged from speaking out, or discriminated against;
``(E) students should be treated equally and fairly
; and
``(F) nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to
modify, change, or infringe upon any constitutionally protected
religious liberty, freedom, expression, or association.''; and​

People come to speak at all colleges and universities on a number of subject. Why is this any different?
Why much other student attack a speaker or those who go to listen? Why should riots and intimidation be allowed when it is racist terrorism? What is wrong with being conservative or republican? they are no less American and on the ballots of all elections. they serve in congress and even as president?

Half the country voted for republicans in this last election.

Why should students and professional protesters attack half the americans in this country over their opinions or right to vote for whom they want? Where is the free speech when student shut down with force a speaker?
Only in your land of hatemongers & bigots, does a speaker than does nothing but say things to hurt people to get attention be any value.

What exactly are you calling racist terrorism? When there is a protest against some racist even t? Really?

Nothing wrong with being a conservative or Republican as long as you know the truth & think our country ranks over your pathetic party. Maybe if you Republicans would try to win elections without the cheating of gross gerrymandering & voter suppression. Maybe when you Republicans quit trying to legislate your fake religion. Maybe when you assholes quit acting like corporations are people. Maybe when you give a shit about our planet. Maybe when you quit electing women groping, business cheats, liars who are too ignorant to make any decisions let alone those affecting our entire Country.

Maybe when you morons have enough sense to know Trump does not know more about ISIS than our generals & that the science of global warming is real.

Until then, I will point out every fricken lie & stupid post you make.

Let me know when you decide that our country is more important than your party.
 
where is all this hate mongering? coming from the dems
There is nothing wrong with putting america first, securing the borders. removing illegal criminals, or wanting other countries to be more forthcoming with background information for vetting.

Where is the racism?

dems are the ones shutting down free speech and rioting in the streets terrorizing people with a different perspective of america, the hard working ones.

Because those organizations accrediting universities and colleges are even further far left than they are.

The USDE and CHEA (Council for Higher Education Accreditation) are responsible for validating whether an accreditation agency itself is competent and credible. These are the institutions that, so to speak, “guard the guards.” @ Accreditation of Colleges and Universities: Who's Accrediting the Accreditors? | The Best Schools

Then Trump needs to clean house at the USDE and have them enforce the legal standards.

We have joined the 21st Century after we defeated Marxism in the 20th Century. But you want to return to the days of USSR and Pol Pot and Cambodia.

They invite plenty of anti-semites who spew hate. They hire anti-semites and even offer an anti-Israel course in their curriculum. Berkeley has no problem with hate speech. They have a problem with ANY speech by the other side.
