Women’s Studies Professors Pitch Tantrum Over George Will Appearance

Syndicated columnist George F. Will is scheduled to speak this week at Miami University and professors in the public school’s women’s, gender and sexuality studies program are pitching a huge fit.

The faculty meltdown over Will’s speech is a response to his June column in the Washington Post about sexual assault on college campuses. The professors are calling the column “hate speech” and “vitriol that potentially encourages violence toward women in particular,” according to Media Matters.

“The Miami I believe in is committed to creating a welcoming and safe environment for all of our students,” said Anita Mannur, the director of the women’s studies program on the idyllic, taxpayer-funded campus in Oxford, Ohio.

“I am disappointed that a speaker who clearly does not respect women, or take the issue of sexual assault seriously, is being given a platform to speak, particularly because such inflammatory rhetoric has the potential to re-victimize and re-traumatize some of our students,” Mannur added.

Will’s column lambasted misinformation and hyperbole over rape on college campuses. The conservative columnist explained how the White House and other advocacy groups are — based on their own numbers — demonstrably inflating campus rape statistics.
