“Brown’s campus left is … perhaps crushed for good by the ever-presence of the Spectator.”
I love the optimistic spirit, but did you talk to anyone else besides Spectator writers on this one? Trust me. The Spectator has done nothing to “crush” campus liberals. If anything, it’s encouraged them. I’m all for free speech, and I come from a conservative background. But when I read the Spectator (paraphrase: illegal immigrants are terrorists), I’m assured that my increasingly left-ward leanings are justified.
In fact, I was laughing with my Bible study group over one of the articles. We couldn’t figure out if it was satire or in earnest. I think that says it all.
