Victory for free speech at Duke

We read:
"Duke University has reversed a decision by its Women’s Center that prohibited the Duke Students for Life (DSFL) student group from holding a discussion on student motherhood at a Women’s Center venue during the group’s ‘Week for Life’ event.

The group’s president turned to the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) for help.

Only hours after FIRE exposed Duke’s decision to public scrutiny yesterday, Women’s Center Director Ada Gregory wrote to the group to say that ‘mistakes were certainly made that should not have occurred’ and that she had ‘taken steps to ensure that such an incident will not happen again.’”

Do they also have a Mens Center? No, i didn't think so. You can not achieve equality when it's based on discrimination. If nothing else, the openly racist Affirmative Action laws taught us that.
