You don't need to have all view points presented at all times. For fucks sake, have some backbone, have the ability to defend your beliefs in your own mind if nothing else. Be able to accept information and defend yourself or be willing to change your mind.
This is fucking college!
And of course the rules don't apply to liberals, how surprising.

Better not let those kids hear an opposing opinion for 10 minutes without 40 minutes of approved propaganda before and after.

Education these days is more about teaching kids what to think, not how to think. These kids have gone their whole lives being told to shut up, listen, and not to question. Allowing someone to come in with a viewpoint that differs from the one they have hammered into those kids, and speak to them in a similar format to the one used for indoctrination, might actually get those kids thinking for themselves. Which is why that can't be allowed to happen.
