I agree, but he’s whistling Dixie with that request.
He should get it.
The school probably gave $5000 to the protesters so that they’d protest. So you see, there was nothing left! A “Catch 22” if you will.
I just LOVE liberal love of diversity and tolerance.
it was pretty clear that the additional security costs were simply DePaul’s attempt to prevent the speech from occurring in the first place.
after Milo exited the building DePaul forbade him from re-entering the building in order to simply retrieve his personal belongings like his foot telephone.
the reason they gave was safety, after supervising him getting slugged on stage.
can you believe it?
Also the 200 year old girl punched him.
As I recall, the book, movie and TV show, “The Paper Chase”, focused on Professor Kingsfield and his teaching of CONTRACT LAW! Liberals loved that program/book/movie but may not have understood any of what constitutes a contract! It is essentially a fair meeting between two parties with known conditions accepted for an agreed outcome.
DePaul has apparently failed to fulfill its contract - refund is the minimum expected.
Universities are now hoist on their own petard. Because of their own hotly-demanded progressivism, they must admit (and force others to subsidize) disproportionate numbers of underqualified, undersocialized and over-entitled insurgents. Universities are now cowering in fear, afraid to teach how to shut up and learn, how to debate rather than suppress, and that universities had been a foundational component of civilization — or even that Western Civ was a net positive development in human history.
After all, universities have been the main purveyors of Hate Speech towards eurocentric Christian Western Civilization for the past 50 years. They richly deserve their present educational failure and takeover by the forces of fascism and communism. They asked for it.
So bite us, universities. Many will start educating themselves online to avoid animalistic behavior in the lecture halls, sexual anarchy on the campus and tyrranical breaches of privacy in the dorms and lockers.
Violent thugs acting like violent thugs to disprove the perception that they’re violent thugs.
The collective IQ of BLM doesn’t crack the 50 mark.
While what happened at the event was disgusting, the outcome is a black mark on BLM, university hypocrisy, and the growing movement of liberal fascism on campus.
The outcome is a plus for conservatives.
The Academies have been increasingly corrupted since World War II; but they used to at least give lip service to the concept of "Academic Freedom." Increasingly they are abandoning any pretense.
Nice thing for the University President to say, but without action it means less than nothing. What sort of action? Inviting Milo back to complete his talk at for no expense.
Reimburse the $1,000 security costs to Milo
To the extent that the “activist” ring leaders are students, severely punish them.
The rest of them, force everyone to sit through “sensitivity training” regarding what free speech is and how tolerance means “tolerance of speech and attitudes that you don’t like.
Chances of these things happening? 0%
Not only does he deserve a refund, he deserves damages as well.
That security fee at universities is for security for snowflakes to provide the counseling necessary if they should hear something that they have not heard before and it scares them.
Had to look up the location of DePaul.
It is at the anus of America.
“Conservative provocateur” = Truth Illuminater
