  • David Lewis Schaefer is a Poli Sci professor at Holy Cross College, down the road in Worcester, and he makes me very happy that neither Pun Son nor Salad Daughter attends HC. He describes the current status of free expression on the campus, providing a number of quotes from the president, Father Michael McFarland, S.J. which are (frankly) astounding in their blithe illiberlism; it's like reading a bad parody of a worst-nightmare college administrator.
