2. I see the issue. You are applying that statement into a broader discussion about the overall structure of the institutions when it was intended for a much more narrow focus regarding the reaction to expression. I apologize if my use of the word "only" in that narrow context confused you.


3. I think getting up and walking out before the speaker you are protesting against takes the podium is in good taste as a protest. It is freedom of expression, and it was done in a way that got the message across but did not actually interrupt the ceremony.


4. And my assertion is that reprimanding them is an action that stymies free expression in the university, which is a threat to the way high education is intended to function.

1. I get phrasing that way makes it seem better for those that left the school function. Do you have a list of other events these professor have protested Pence. If the answer is no; then my point is made.

2. I blame me for the confusion

3. You have no idea what affect it had on the ceremony.

4. That's because you're a Liberal and I'm a Conservative. My assertion is "express" all you want, but be prepared to accept the consequences if your "expression" shows insolence toward your employer.
