1. Bok sketches the following argument (paras. 8 and 9): The First
Amendment protects free speech in public universities and colleges;
Harvard is not a public university; therefore, Harvard does not enjoy the
protection of the First Amendment. This argument is plainly invalid.
Bok clearly rejects the conclusion ("I have difficulty understanding why
. . . Harvard should have less free speech . . . than a public university").
What would need to be revised in the premises to make the argument
valid? Do you think Bok would accept or reject such a revision?
2. Bok objects to censorship that simply prevents students from being
"offended." He would not object to the campus police preventing students
from being harmed.In an essay of 100 words, explain the difference
between conduct that is harmful and conduct that is (merely?)
offensive.
3. Bok advises campus officials (and students) simply to "ignore" offensive
words, flags, and so forth (para. 13). Do you agree with this advice? Or
do you favor a different kind of response? Write a 250-word essay on
the theme "How We Ought to Respond to the Offensive Misconduct of
Others."?
