Censorship, plain and simple. Lyon did go to Hampshire, but the experience was disheartening for all concerned because of the absurd and destructive protests. Hampshire may well find itself blacklisted by artists as well. I'm tempted to suggest that the intolerant and dogmatic crowd that seems to dominate the Hampshire student body be taken to the woodshed and sent to their rooms without supper. But they have the right to call for censorship.
Free speech is everyone's right.
Red Guards and neo-Nazis have the right to free speech, and they may use this right to demand censorship of those who disagree with them. More importantly, the Hampshire students are not at fault. Therefore it is absolutely to be expected that such students demand censorship whenever they encounter a work of art, or other instance of expression, that they happen not to understand. The majority of the Hampshire College faculty have brought disgrace upon their honorable profession. Only they can reverse this most terrible mistake and remove an otherwise indelible stain on Hampshire's reputation.
