also, the university whole panel independence. certainly not suggesting that that should always be done. they should at least had some significant proportion of their events and the very last couple of minutes of my talk i would like to talk about what can the advocates of free speech do to promote their cause better. since they are the group that is often not always but most victimized by campus policies you should be an intellectually serious group of people. it someone as easily dismissed as a blowhard. when you decide who to event -- invite on campus. you should make sure that you should not be inviting people simply because they anger or offend the other side. you should not to be inviting people who are basically provocateurs and had little of anything with substance. if the only virtue of your potential speaker is that he will track some headlines and he will and now i the people on the other side. that means it's probably a bad speaker. they should not be met with violence. and the school should not suppress their speech. i

and say the left is in control of universities and here is the long litany of grievances against universities where we feel we are not getting our fair share, not enough conservative professors, all that is valid but when you decide you want to address that problem through ways that would deny free-speech. we see that in a few places, the professor watch list. some of you may be aware of. turning point usa has a list of faculty members and there is a pretty direct if sometimes subtle effort to try to get people fired. this should not shock people in this room, marxist professors think marxist things and say marxist things. this doesn't shock me. i accepted marxist professors say and think things i disagree with. creating a list, that puts conservatives in position of advocating censorship and against academic freedom and not only, first of all not only unprincipled but if you accept the premise that universities are a place where the left is generally in charge, if that is actually true trying to be gentle here it is incredibly stupid to pursue that approach, to think you

it is poetic justice for the university. reality is, columbia university, like all of these giant universities, they all attempted to r reform and d the aftermath of the protest of the 1960's and 1970's, but institutionally, they are still giant c corporations that see te need to train the end people of that the elitist society one. they constantly regress. no matter what they say, they always regressed back to the for theicies of e elitism communities around them. i cannot think of the urban university in america that is not gobbling up the land of the residence right around them and attempting to build more buildings. the edifice of c complex that ty alall have to build thehe newest building.. it is a continuing problem. the role of the universities, vis-a-vis, the communities. >> i'm going to be at a black student event in hamilton. the times ran an in-depth story the other day and the president bollinger made a comment about, well, we didn't like the way they went about it, as though civil disobedience was invented at col

so now we are approaching the university. and this is the president's home on the left. >> tell our audience who he is. >> he is a former state legislator, governor, u.s. nator and he came here about 1994, 1995 as the president of the university and left the you senate and had a high approval rating but reached a point that not much gets down in washington anymore and came down and he is the second longest he is the second longest serving president of this university. he is the longest serving of the u.s. university at this time. his office is straight ahead, for many years. >> what is significant about the university of oklahoma in relationship -- you mentioned the land. when was the university established? >> the university, first classes were held in 1890. it has been here a long time. 1889, 1 the land run in year later they were having classes in the building toward the downtown area. the building you see ahead and to the right is a football stadium. this is where six saturdays the the -- saturdays a year, faithful, and pr

the university came in 1890. e are headed to the east side of town and what you see straightahead we will see closer. some of the remnants of the state hospital for mental institutions which were opened here 1895 and the state had 3 mental hospitals, western states and eastern state in oklahoma. thousands of patients lived here on the grounds, my grandfather was a psychiatrist. they lived in a hole in the corner so my father grew up here. and this is the city within the city. there are 5000 patients that lived on the premises. the first gated community all around and had their own laundry, their own commissary, they grew their own food and beef and had farms and recreation areas. a huge place for patients was the treatment of a mental illness changed the more of it was outpatient community-based treatment so wasn't as big a need for people to be inpatient treatment anymore. it is still hospital griffin hospital now and they serve a lot more people on an outpatient basis. >> host: in oklahoma city, - >> because of

the reality that universities are idea generators. and so what is happening, what the ideas that are being produced on university campuses tend to find their way to washington, dc. and so they end up affecting public policy. so, there's a need to make sure that if these ideas are going to be produced on these university campuses, that the ideas being sent to washington, dc are at least closer to the truth. closer to what is actually true, what actually makes sense. you can't get at truth without having the opportunity for all sides to be represented for a true sort of whittling down of some of these ideas and input from all sides. so, the second reason. the third, i think, and the reason that really concerns me about what we're seeing on some university campuses, is just fundamentally that set aside the ideas. this is where students are learning what does it mean for know be a citizen in this republic? what is my relationship with the government supposed to be like you're coming from high school, where you live with your parents and th

what happened at the university of oklahoma is quite unique. on may 5, there is a demonstration against the war in vietnam and to express anger and frustration over the deaths of the kent state students. in this particular demonstration in this, -- and particular demonstration on may 5 becomes violent. there is a student waving a red flag arrested by the police. by the police, and a students surround the police car. they are trying to keep it from moving forward, they let the air out of the tires, there is an effort to attack the car. one person even tries to light a rag and put it in the gas tank to set it on fire. this is the moment of intense fear at ou. in the midst of this, one of the police officers released is gone. gun.leased his there are a few moments that were tense and he was trying to figure out what to do. there was a student that found a gun and returned it to a police officer, so the moment of crisis passed. it took state troopers to free the car, get the young man that twobeen arrested and other students that got arrested from t

the university came in 1890. where we're headed now is the east side of town, and what you see straight ahead, we'll see a little closer. some of the remnants of the state hospital for the mental institution, which was opened here about 1895. >> is that it over to the left? >> yes, the state had three mental hospitals, central state hospital, which was this one. western state, eastern state, and at one time there were thousands of patients that lived here on the grounds. my grandfather was a psychiatrist here, and they lived in a home right here on the corner, so my father grew up right here, so the doctors lived on the grounds and the patients all had jobs. this was a city within a city, that one time there were probably 4,000, 5,000 patients that lived here on the premises. we joked that it was norman's first gated community, because there were fences all around. they had their own laundry, commissary, they grew their own food, grew their own beef. they had farms. they had recreation areas. it was a huge place f

when you ask the university presidents about the idea of sending these veterans to college, the university presidents were to a person opposed. as the president of the university of chicago said, robert maynard hutchins, colleges and universities will find themselves converted into educational hobo jungles. not very promising. the presidentn, of harvard, was not quite as colorful into crying the likelihood these young men could not do college work, but he at least had the grace to say later that veterans were the most mature and promising students harvard has ever had. but what the veterans really did after they flooded into the -- 51% of the veterans took advantage of this educational activity. half of them in vocational training, and the, the remainder in -- actually more went into vocational training then went to college. but the college numbers grew enormously. and what they proved is that they could do the work. and what that did was to expand the american public's notion of who was college material. of course they mostly thought it was boys. it wasn't until 1981 that the number of gi

that is also home to the university of oklahoma. as we travel around norman, we'll speak with local authors. >> oklahoma's history is ironically inverted miniature of the national narrative. unfolding in a matter of days and weeks and months. sometimes hours. rather than decades with the rest of the country. so this is the land that gave birth to 20th century america's premier athlete, the second fox indian jim thorpe. woody guthrie. one of its most celebrated black novelist, ralph ellison. and deadliest race riot, all within a few dozen years than 100 miles of each other. >> we begin with author carlos hill on the history of lynching in america and how the response of african-americans evolve over time. >> portions of this program contain images that some viewers may find offensive. >> the history of lynching began as the history of america. the turn of lynching actually comes from an american revolutionary colonel, colonel lynch. and so, during the revolutionary period, colonel lynch was famous for a meeting punishment on suspect t

in a statement, the university told us: the argument touches on a difficult issue for universities abouttudent say says it to a black colleague on a university campus, they may be saying it in jest, they may be saying it because they think it is socially acceptable. would you class an example like that as racism? personally, i think that the n—word is offensive whenever it is used and i don't think it is appropriate for anybody to use that word. i don't think it is appropriate to use that word, i think that it gives people the go—ahead. we fought so hard and long to eradicate those type of terminologies that for me i don't think it can be reclaimed. and you can see how these issues are difficult for universities, should they dictate which words a student is allowed or not allowed to say based on their race? it's clear from each of the three students we have spoken to that getting attacked or abused because of your race is isolating and deeply upsetting. it's an experience that makes itself felt for a long time. it's why here in westminster, a senior labour politician and former universit
