Columbia University has agreed to a $200 million settlement with the Trump administration after facing allegations of failing to curtail antisemitism on their campus. This raises an important question; how should college administrators balance protecting students' rights to speak and be exposed to the widest possible range of ideas without allowing those ideas and expressions to spill over into something ugly? When does expression become dangerous? It's a fine line that must be walked. Is the Trump administration trying to make the situation better? Or does he see this as an opportunity to humble academia and exert his will upon it? Drs. Tim Slekar and Johnny Lupinacci discuss how to keep balance in the struggle of campus freedom vs. campus safety.
