and in 1975, would morgan state university is awarded its university status. that case that i just showed you with the case of thurgood marshall's first case, separate but equal. the morgan college students protest in maryland in 1927 when they protested in the nation's capital to increase the support for morgan state university was one of the early civil rights movements of the students of morgan. morgan students have participated in numerous civil rights activities from sit-ins to demonstrations to protest. 1947 to the frm 1970's. the drugstore sit-in was the first in the country when the morgan students in 1955 sat in downtown at the reads drugstore to desegregate the once counters that would have excluded persons of color from sitting and eating and being able to order food. other noted faculty members of this institution included dr. howard heard it, a morgan college graduate of 1937 and became professor from 1927 to 1957. he was the director of the morgan christian center from 1944 to 1976. james carter, who was born on this site, to a family that was em

panelists include a documentary filmmaker, authors and professors from yale university and the university of michigan and chicago. this is just over 90 minutes. >> okay, good evening, everyone. i guess it's feeding time now. the sun is setting so early. for those of you who don't know me i'm neil guterman, the dean of the school of social service administration here at the university of chicago and i want to thank you for joining us for this evenings event. american universities have long been unique institutions that generate novel sometimes controversial and even classic ideas that will challenge and sometimes press popular wisdom bringing to bear deeper more rigorous analyses of evidence. such ideas can at times you'll advances or even breakthroughs of the most vexing questions and problems of our day. one of the most indispensable pillars in higher education, which makes such advanced wholly possible, is a cardinal principle and practice of academic freedom, the protection and the unfettered pursuit of ideas, concepts, evidence and knowledge, and the passing on of such in our educatio

that goes beyond the university itself which is that the university does not exist in isolation. it exists in societal context and history. it's no surprise to anyone that the history of old country has an enormous amount of behavior built into its history. we have, therefore a dual obligation of fulfilling our own mission in bringing those diverse perspectives to bear, but we also have an obligation as an important member of society to deal with the particular history of this country and the exclusionary aspects that are involved in it. i think they articulated the meaning of ssa very nicely. in terms of doing that from the point of view of ssa's concrete mission. some people have argued that academic freedom and free expression and diversity and inclusion on the other hand are in conflict. saying there is no tension between them would be disingenuous. saying there is an underlying conflict between them is something i actually do not believe. i believe they're mutually reinforcing but one needs to recognize there are things that need to be worked out. anything less than an aspir

this is really the moment of the huge discovery, the universe is huge. there are other galaxies and the universe is expanding and all relies on his work spirit this cut circles back to this idea where these women are able to kind of create the data or the information, but then they are not given time to do the research and make their own conclusion. levitt is the observatory gets a letter that someone wants to nominate her for the nobel prize, but he doesn't realize that she passed away five years before. at that time it was shapely it was the drug tribally and he wrote, basically if given the time that she would have possibly come to our own conclusion but she went on to kind of hand over the yardstick and kind of walk away spirit that yardstick she handed over was pretty thoroughly analyzed. she really had discovered in mathematical law that allowed to come so she did this t demand analysis in and of its own right and yes maybe she would've gone on to the know-how to leverage it. speaker discovery which has been known as -- more and more people are not

that goes beyond the university that university does not exist in isolation. it exits in a societal context and it exists in history. it's no surprise to anyone that the history of really all countries, but the very particularly this country, has an enormous amount of exclusionary behavior built into its history. we have therefore a dual obligation, an obligation as fulfilling our own mission and bringing those diverse perspectives to bear in a non-exclusionary way, but we also have an obligation as an important member of society to deal with the particular history of this country and the exclusionary aspects that have been involved in it. i think neil articulated the meaning of ssa very nicely in terms of doing that from the point of view of ssa's concrete mission, but the university as a whole itself has an obligation in that direction. now, some people have argued that these two issues are in conflict to some extent, that academic freedom and free expression on one hand and diversity and inclusion on the other hand are in conflict. saying that there's no te

virginia university as west virginia university's benidum distinguished scholar. west virginia university even sends people all the way to china to study climate change. some hoax. on ward. my friend senator boozman is next in the line. his home state university of arkansas has actually signed on to both the first and second university president's climate commitments. the university of arkansas has undertaken what it calls an aggressive and innovative climate action plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help prevent climate change. the university of arkansas explains the need to reduce greenhouse gases particularly including carbon dioxide and methane. it's because these gases, and i quote, absorption of solar radiation is responsible for the greenhouse effect. explaininexplaining further, the university of arkansas describes is that the greenhouse effect occurs as these gases are trapped and held in the ernl's atmosphere, gradually increasing the temperature of the earth's surface and air in the lower atmosphere. a university of arkansas scientist predicts

caller: you went to jerry falwell liberty university. i don't think you are an expert on [indiscernible] with all the roles you had at that college. you had so many roles there, i don't know how you survived. a privatewas institution, so i knew what i was getting into. i think there are misconceptions. i don't want to get bogged down in liberty and the school i attended. the real issue at a whole is the college system is not become a place for students to form their own opinions. it is now a place that has been completely shut down in many ways. free speech is almost the dirty word on college campus. people think they should not be able to disagree with students. if ever there is a place to have your feelings heard, it is college campus. it is to go things and strengthen -- it is to see things you may disagree with and strengthen your own opinions. anything that hurts your feelings should be and and i go to these different campuses and we have to deal last week, i was at american university in bc -- in d.c. and there was a i thought that

a recent study by vanderbilt university found colleges and universities spend about $27 billion per year to comply with federal regulations. let me repeat that. $27 billion every year on compliance costs. at vanderbilt the cost of compliance equates to roughly 11,000 dollars per year for each of the university students. that's astonishing. it's important to know because those costs are usually passed on to students in the form of higher fees intuitions. i say that not to point a finger at institutions but to illustrate the real world consequences of the system. we need to provide relief by repealing unnecessary reporting requirements and addressing many harmful and misguided regulations imposed by the former administration. we should do that while we deliver strong, common sense accountability and federal programs. what is that mean in practical terms? it means continuing the current accreditation system but refocusing our attention to quality and results. as accrediting agencies, you face a monumental task and a critical one. in recent years you have been forced to shift your focus to c

going to bob jones university probably did help george w. bush win that primary in south carolina, that all white republican primary in south carolina. and it thereby helped him put away john mccain and win the presidency. and forever george w. bush will have to drag that hard as part of his legacy because it wasn't like he didn't know what he was getting into. it wasn't like he didn't know he was going a school that had an enforced apartheid regimen where the school literally regulated who you date by race. he knew exactly what he was doing when he went to bob jones university. it was a well-known thing about that school. when george w. bush's dad had been vice president, the reagan administration had, in fact, gone to court to defend bob jones university and specifically to defend its right to ban interracial dating among its students. even while it still got tax exemptions from the irs as a school. >> bob jones university is a fundamentalist christian college that believes the bible prohibits interracial marriage. interracial dating is fo
