South Dakota is a gorgeous state. I attended a blacksmithing conference there in 2012 - it was hosted by the local University in Rapid City. They have an excellent metalurgy program and I learned a lot. This is wonderful news - from Campus Reform:
EXCLUSIVE: SD Board of Regents passes substantial free speech protections
The South Dakota Board of Regents approved modifications to a group of policies at a Wednesday and Thursday meeting that substantially protects free speech on campus by eliminating free speech zones, banning ideological discrimination, and more.
Among the policy changes, public universities in South Dakota will no longer be able to discriminate against “any student or student organization” based on viewpoint or ideology. Student organizations will also be able to require members to “affirm and adhere to the organization’s sincerely held beliefs.”
Glad to see some clear heads and solid reason. All speech matters.
