Christina Hoff Sommers was invited the the Lewis & Clark Law School Federalist Society chapter.
The “anti-fascist” coalition at the law school decided she should not be allowed to speak. Apparently having a different opinion, and fact checking the statistics behind claims of a campus rape crisis and wage differential makes...
The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), known for targeting right-leaning thinkers and organizations, included Factual Feminist Christina Hoff Sommers in its report on male supremacy, which the group describes as “a hateful ideology advocating for the subjugation of women.”
They contend Hoff Sommers legitimizes “male supremacy.”
The anti-Israel movement, including Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) activists, seek to drive Israeli and pro-Israel speakers from college campuses through disruptions. The goal is to scare off not only speakers, but students who want to invite speakers.
The physical intimidation that accompanies this strategy goes beyond expressing disagreement.
We have covered these...
A gender wage gap exists, that much is hardly disputed. Whether or not the wage gap is a product of sexism is the point of contention.
Sommers was at Williams to talk about feminism but what she received was insults, rants and meltdowns, including falsely being accused of being a White Supremacist.
The Wall Street Journal reported:
At Williams, a Funny Way of ‘Listening’
‘You’re a racist white supremacist!” a Williams College student shouted at Christina Hoff Sommers, after she...
The far left site Salon recently published a list of 25 conservatives who are “actually worth following” on Twitter. If you scroll through their list however, it quickly becomes apparent that it’s a “who’s who” of noted Trump haters on the right.
The Oberlin Review, the student newspaper at Oberlin College, took exception to a news report in The Washington Times, Enrollment drops at schools known for ‘social justice warfare’.
The Washington Times article included a quote from me:
At both the University of Missouri and Evergreen State College, an atmosphere of aggressive “Social Justice” activism damaged enrollment and contributed to financial difficulties.
Apparently, even liberal students don’t want to attend institutions where student and faculty social justice warriors have turned the campus into a battleground.
The same thing may be happening...
A 21 year old law student at Edinburgh University mocked ISIS on his Facebook page. Now his school is investigating him for potentially committing a hate crime.
There is no religious doctrine as unassailable as the claim that differences in achievement in areas where women and/or racial/ethnic minorities are UNDERrepresented is caused by systemic sexism/racism etc.
That religious doctrine, however, never is applied to fields in which women and/or racial/ethnic minorities are OVERrepresented.
The claim that differences in outcome are...
Our friend Christina Hoff Sommers has written a new column at the American Enterprise Institute which focuses on the current threat to free speech.
The Threat to Free Speech
When Heather Mac Donald’s “blue lives matter” talk was shut down by a mob at Claremont McKenna College, the president of neighboring Pomona College...
Despite it’s prevalence in neo-feminism lore, the gender wage gap is a myth.
Prager University‘s latest takes on this myth.
You’ve almost certainly heard about the “gender wage gap” — the claim that women earn 77 cents to every man’s dollar — for the exact same work! Where does that number come...
Two violent attacks campus speakers have gained widespread media attention in recent months — the attack on Milo Yiannopoulos’ appearance at UC-Berkeley, and Charles Murray
It’s starting to look like liberals are afraid of losing their strangle hold on the campus narrative. They’ll even issue threats to keep it.
The College Fix reports:
Bucknell prof: If you invite Milo Y. to campus you should pay a ‘steep and lasting price’
An economics professor at Bucknell says the “racist and...
In recent years, driven in part by federal directives and radical leftist feminism, we’re at the point where college males who are accused of sexual misconduct are more likely to be tried in a campus ‘Kangaroo Courts’ than a court of law, as we wrote in Kangaroo courts for men on campus:
The media...
As we wind down to the end of 2016, I thought it would be fun to create a list of some of our best higher education related posts.
We’ve done so many that it wasn’t easy to settle on just ten. Also, the list below isn’t arranged in any particular order based...
Christina Hoff Sommers hits it out of the park again, this time in The Washington Post, How to make feminism great again:
Hillary Clinton’s defeat is wreaking havoc in the sisterhood. Celebrity feminists are especially distraught. “Girls” star Lena Dunham developed hives and fled to Sedona for spiritual renewal. Katy Perry took to...
