Google has had enough with workplace activism?

If all universities did was "sell education," Vietnam era students would not have protested the war research. 

But as for the education part, you asked a good question. What if the university grants some student a degree in chemistry,
and he uses it to make bombs which kill innocent people? I'd say no liability in that case, since 1) no possible way to
predict how that "education" would be used, and 2) preventing such education would likely do more harm than good.

Rather different, though, if the university is selling education to people who will use it to oppress another ethnic group,
and that is known ahead of time.
