The Faces Of College Fascism

The last we looked the University of Colorado system is a state taxpayer supported institution. If this is the kind of closed attitude to what is supposed to be a free zone of discussion and ideas for young people, fine. If it isn't you might want to organize and use your voice and the purchasing power of the boycott to push this issue to public debate.

Professors Laroche, Haggren and Skahill of the University of Colorado - Colorado Springs will not allow you to invade their man-made climate change "safe space" and if you don't like it then you can get out.  According to The College Fix, that is the response students recently received from the progressive teacher trio after "expressing concern" for their success in a course that refused to debate climate change. 
The full email from the teachers is posted below but here are a couple of the highlights:
"We have received several emails from students expressing concern for their success in our course given their personal perspectives on climate change."

“The point of departure for this course is based on the scientific premise that human induced climate change is valid and occurring. We will not, at any time, debate the science of climate change, nor will the ‘other side’ of the climate change debate be taught or discussed in this course.  Opening up a debate that 98% of climate scientists unequivocally agree to be a non-debate would detract from the central concerns of environment and health addressed in this course.”

“… If you believe this premise to be an issue for you, we respectfully ask that you do not take this course, as there are options within the Humanities program for face to face this semester and online next.
 To begin with, that 98% of climate change scientists unequivocally agree is a blatant lie That should not be allowed to go unchallenged. Academia has become the new quarters of using taxpayer funds to promote and support fascism.
