Once again cop-killer Mumia Abu-Jamal is invited to deliver a commencement address.
This is in the wake of people like SCOTUS Justice Clarence Thomas, Condoleezza Rice, David Horowitz and several other non-Leftist commencement speakers being disinvited.

This explains the current state of our institutions of “Higher Learning”. Minds full of mush entering college, minds full of crap when they leave.

But always in the same political direction, oddly enough.
