Harvard Creates a Blacklist to Shame Students Who Join ANY Single Sex Groups, Even Off Campus

Harvard Creates a Blacklist to Shame Students Who Join ANY Single Sex Groups, Even Off Campus 2018-05-24T10:31:32-06:00 Mark Meckler

FIRE‘s Robert Shibley, who has recently begun writing at Instapundit, has a crazy story about Harvard.

Apparently, the college is so against gender discrimination that it has created a “blacklist” to shame students who join single sex groups.  “Harvard professes to be so concerned about discrimination that it has literally set up a blacklist for students found ‘guilty’ of joining off-campus single-sex social groups such as sororities, fraternities, and ‘final clubs,’ making a mockery of freedom of association.”

Harvard apparently does not appreciate the fact that sometimes guys want to be with guys, and girls want to be with girls.  (I guess they only believe this is possible sexually, not socially.)  Yet, studies show there are benefits to belonging to clubs and groups that are single sex.  Shibley writes that The Harvard Crimson today reports on efforts in Congress to preserve this freedom of association.  In April 2018, Judson Horras — the president and CEO of NIC, said social group alumni and current undergraduates — went to Washington D.C. to meet with more than 450 lawmakers.

Horras said the social groups believe it is important to defeat Harvard’s sanctions not only to protect single-gender organizations at the University but to broadly defend students’ Constitutional right to freedom of association.

“It’s easy to say that this is about Harvard, but this is about something much bigger than Harvard and everyone has to understand that,” he said. “People aren’t thinking about this in terms of Harvard, they’re thinking about this in terms of basic rights of assembly and speech and choice.”

Shibley continues to criticize the university’s dedication against free speech. “This after Harvard blacklisted gays in the 1920s (driving one student to suicide) and Communists in the 50s. Now that institution, whose wealth would embarrass Scrooge McDuck, demands the right to continue to receiving federal funding while persecuting sorority girls. Have you no sense of decency, Harvard, at long last?”

I think the answer to that is a resounding no.  Decency has long ago taken back seat to the crazy identity politics that is so prevalent today, especially in higher education.  Harvard has made a mockery of itself and its regard for the Constitution.
