Free Speech Can't Be Trumped By Title IX -- But College Officials Use It That Way

Article here. Excerpt:

'When federal politicians passed the Higher Education Act, they thought they were only going to help good students who couldn’t otherwise afford college to attend. They did not think about possible unintended consequences — like making college far more expensive, undermining academic standards, or giving federal bureaucra'ts leverage to dictate to colleges and universities.

But all of that has happened.

I’m going to focus on that last consequence—the way federal intervention in higher education has empowered bureaucrats to whittle away at free speech on (and even off) campus.'
