In an article unexpectedly relevant to the news from California, R. R. Reno discusses Homosexuality and the Failure of Modern Education in today’s “On the Square.” Comparing the recent cases of academic intolerance in Illinois and Georgia, he writes that

When it comes to sexual liberation, a culture of intimidation has taken the place of reason, debate, and civility. The otherwise favored ideal of academic freedom suddenly disappears, to be replaced with other absolutes that seem to demand intellectual submission.

Faculty and students must not dissent against the (apparent) consensus that homosexuality is a good thing. Reno suggests one reason the liberationists demand submission.
