Free speech causes controversy
Alex Emslie, writing in The Guardsman: “Two members of City College’s Muslim Student Association (MSA) were arrested on Feb. 11 at an anti-Hamas demonstration, organized by the College Republicans at San Francisco State University . . . This incident was not the first time the SFSU College Republicans have used the Hamas flag in a demonstration. The university attempted to sanction the group for a similar incident in 2007. The lawsuit’s settlement, filed on behalf of the College Republicans by the Alliance Defense Fund, required SFSU to pay attorney fees and change much of its free speech policy.”
