Letter to The Editor

to THE AUSTRALIAN
     Concern that ‘safe place policies’ in universities are leading to unwelcome political censorship (‘Why make uni students allergic to ideas’, 28/4) appears to be justified by the peculiar venom and intransigence becoming more and more apparent in various leftist publications and utterances. ‘Rigorous debate’ appears to be anathema to many ‘politically correct’ zealots. No doubt their attention will soon be turned on the thoroughly reasonable plans of the Australian and NSW governments to celebrate the 250th anniversary of Captain Cook’s discovery of our continent.
