If you've never watched a debate on Intelligence Squared I highly recommend it.
A very interesting debate night before last was whether or not left wing folks are preventing debate by right wing people on campus.
Here's their introduction:
"What is college for? For many, it’s a time for personal and intellectual growth, to meet new people, and to explore ideas and philosophies that challenge their beliefs. Or is it? Recent cancellations of conservative speakers, rescinded honorary degrees, and scrutiny of certain campus groups have heightened perceptions that there is pervasive liberal intolerance on campuses. Are liberals shutting down speech and debate on campus? Or is this theory a myth, based on the preponderance of liberals at universities rather than intentionally discriminatory actions?"
You can find the debate here…
