‘Hate and extremism’ expert says campus conservatism faces discrimination, suppression

‘With regard to speaking on college campuses, conservatives are thoroughly well positioned with their contention that there is both passive and active discrimination against them …’ 

A court-certified expert on extremism who once worked as an attorney for the Southern Poverty Law Center before becoming a criminology professor has a powerful message for academia: If it really supports diversity, let conservative students and speakers have their say on campus.

“We can’t just give lip service to diversity of ideas,” Professor Brian Levin said in a recent telephone interview with The College Fix. “The academia has to realize that there are people of goodwill on both sides, and they have an obligation to respect the entire spectrum of viewpoints.”

The comments come in an era of hypersensitivity, when political correctness often reigns supreme on college campuses.

Levin, director of Cal State University of San Bernardino’s nonpartisan Center for the Study of Hate & Extremism, passionately diverges with much of academia, which enforces campus speech codes and similar policies and programs that limit speech some find offensive.

“As the son of a Nazi-era POW and grandson of immigrants from totalitarian regimes, I have the same appreciation that most Americans share for the special gift that our system of civil, yet uncensored, discourse has given to the world,” Levin explains on the center’s website.
