Colleges should teach courses on every topic under the Sun. They are supposed to be places of learning and where people go to have their thinking challenged. We shouldn't censor what they can, and cannot, teach.

This is all fine in theory, but it resulted in large numbers of students using student loans to complete various esoteric degrees then whining about not being able to find a job, and demanding programs where their student loans are forgiven.

Should they be allowed to censor opposing viewpoints?
