Title: A sad day on Middlebury College campus

URL: http://addisonindependent.com/201703sad-day-middlebury-campus/

Collection: Middlebury Web Archives

Description: In this editorial for The Addison Independent, Ata Anzali, a professor of religion, reflects on the events of the March 2nd protest. He looks back on his experience as a student at Iran Polytechnic University, specifically on an occasion when right-wing student groups prevented the reformist Abdol-Karim Soroush from speaking. He argues that by denying Murray the chance to speak, student protesters at Middlebury "took the tremendous amount of freedom that they had for granted," especially by not paying attention to the fragility of such rights in a global and historical context.

Collection: Middlebury Web Archives

Description: From website: "On March 2, 2017, Charles Murray attempted to give a talk, which was to have been followed by a question and answer session, in Wilson Hall on the Middlebury College campus. When student protestors disrupted the talk, Murray and Middlebury College Prof. Allison Stanger, who was to moderate the Q & A, moved to a video studio that had been set up for the occasion so that Murray could give his talk with questions to follow by Stanger. Interested viewers submitted questions using Twitter, which preserved some of the interactive nature of the event that was planned."
