The Supreme Court ruled against limiting funding for college groups nationwide. Giving these groups funding affords us the chance to learn many different views. We join in that applause. In the case, Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin v. Southworth , students objected to their activity fees being used to support groups they opposed. They argued that being forced to financially support certain groups was a violation of their First Amendment free speech rights.
College is about free speech.
Here on campus you can participate in activities sponsored by political, service, religious, academic, cultural and recreational groups, and most of them are supported by your student activity fees. With limited funding for these groups, there would be less speakers, debates and social activities. These activities are of paramount importance to formulating opinions and ideas. Now that the U.S. Supreme Court has affirmed the idea that colleges are a place for the free exchange of ideas, we should take advantage of it. Attend a lecture by a speaker who you think you might disagree with, drop by a cultural event of a group you don't know much about or participate in a community service activity.
