I               hate               to               sound               like               the               old               man               on               Saturday               Night               Live               as               played               by               Dana               Carvey               who               used               to               exclaim               "that's               the               way               it               was               and               we               liked               it!"               However,               I               can               remember               when               college               campuses               led               the               way               when               it               came               to               free               speech               and               First               Amendment               issues.

Now,               just               as               I               suspected,               the               opposite               is               true.

According               to               the               nonprofit               Foundation               for               Individual               Rights               in               Education,               based               in               Philadelphia,               suppression               of               First               Amendment               rights               at               our               countries'               colleges               and               universities               is               a               "national               scandal."               229               schools               were               given               a               "red               light"               ranking,               the               lowest               possible               mark,               in               a               report               "Spotlight               on               Speech               Codes               2006:               The               State               of               Free               Speech               on               Our               Nation's               Campuses."               Red               light               institutions               have               at               least               one               policy               that               "clearly               and               substantially               restricts               freedom               of               speech"               according               to               the               report.
               The               group               analyzed               policies               at               334               schools               in               2005               and               2006               and               concluded               that               "an               overwhelming               majority               prohibit               speech               that               outside               the               campus               is               protected               by               the               First               Amendment."               Speech               code               policies               governing               expression               were               first               enacted               in               the               1980's.

However,               the               U.S.

Supreme               Court               makes               few               exceptions               to               the               First               Amendment               such               as               what               the               report               calls               "speech               that               incites               reasonable               people               to               violence,               libel               and               actual               harassment."               The               Court               has               defined               harassment               as               "so               severe,               pervasive               and               objecttively               offensive               that               it               effectively               bars               the               victim's               access               to               an               educational               opportunity               or               benefit."
               My               home               state               school,               the               University               of               Arkansas,               has               long               been               considered               a               bastion               of               "political               correctness."               Indeed               the               U               of               A               is               on               the               list.

The               powers               that               be               at               the               University               quickly               defended               their               policies,               along               with               the               President               of               the               Associated               Student               Governent,               issuing               a               blurb               about               how               the               University               is               committed               to               freedom               of               speech.

Hogwash!

They               aren't               and               haven't               been               for               years.

In               all               my               travels,               I               have               yet               to               see               a               school               in               lockstep               with               the               PC               crowd               as               much               as               the               U               of               A.
               "I               believe               students               should               have               complete               access               to               their               rights               but               they               should               also               be               responsible               in               utilizing               them               in               an               effective               way"               said               the               Student               Government               President.

Since               when               is               that               in               the               constitution?

Since               when               do               Universities               have               the               right               to               bypass               the               constitution?

They               don't.

There               is               nothing               in               the               First               Amendment               about               exercising               those               rights               in               a               responsible               way.

The               Supreme               Court               has               ruled               that               freedom               of               speech               does               not               give               one               the               right               to               yell               "fire"               in               a               crowded               theatre,               but               it               says               nothing               of               "utilizing               words               in               an               effective               way"               or               other               such               tripe.
               Of               course               there               are               things               that               shouldn't               be               said               in               public.

Of               course               Michael               Richards               had               no               business               saying               the               things               he               said.

Of               course               people               shouldn't               use               hate               speech               or               racial               epithets,               but               restricting               speech               to               what               is               popular               is               not               what               the               First               Amendment               is               all               about.

The               First               Amendment               was               written               to               protect               unpopular               or               controversial               speech               because               that               is               what               is               most               likely               to               be               restricted.
               I               find               it               deplorable               that               229               of               334               schools               got               the               lowest               ranking,               the               "red               light".

92               got               a               "yellow               light",               meaning               they               have               policies               that               restrict               only               narrow               categories               of               speech.

6               schools               were               not               rated.

You               do               the               math.

That               means               out               of               334               schools,               only               8,               or               about               2.4%               have               no               policies               that               seriously               restrict               speech,               according               to               this               report.
               Samantha               Harris,               the               Foundation's               director               of               legal               and               public               advocacy               says               "there               is               this               attitude               on               a               lot               of               campuses               that               people               have               the               right               not               to               be               offended.

They               ban               free               speech               in               the               process.

You               don't               have               the               right               not               to               be               offended               or               annoyed."               That's               the               rub.We               have               become               a               nation               of               victims,               hypersensitive               to               any               slight,               real               or               imagined.

The               Foundation               believes               EEOC               standards               meant               for               the               workplace               are               unsuitable               for               university               environments,               which               should               encourage               free               speech               and               tolerate               more               expression               than               an               office.
               More               alarming               was               that               private               schools               fared               better               than               public               schools,               which               are               required               by               law               to               protect               constitutional               rights.

58%               of               privates               received               a               red               light,               compared               to               73%               of               public               institutions.
               I               never               thought               protecting               free               speech               would               be               considered               "old               fashioned."               To               too               many               people               free               speech               only               applies               to               those               who               are               like               them               or               agree               with               their               ideas.

I               may               disagree               with               what               you               say,               but               unless               you               libel               me               I               don't               have               the               right               to               infringe               on               your               right               to               say               it.

It               hasn't               been               that               long               since               people's               constitutional               rights               were               routinely               violated               publicly               because               they               were               the               "wrong               color".

Those               of               us               who               have               any               memory               of               those               days               should               be               outraged               that               all               the               teachings               of               Dr.

Martin               Luther               King,               his               death               and               all               the               other               suffering               in               the               struggle               for               freedom               could               turn               out               to               be               in               vain.

Many               have               fought               and               died               for               our               right               to               speak               freely.

Let's               not               let               those               who               should               be               teaching               students               to               exercise               those               freedoms               instead               take               them               away.

    Audiologists               play               an               important               role               in               the               healthcare               field.

    They               treat               patients               with               hearing               loss               and               disorders.

    They               prescribe               hearing               aids,               diagnose               auditory               and               balance               disorders,               and               monitor               patients               with               cochlear               implants.

    They               are               experts.

    It               requires               extensive               training               and               school               work.

    Aspiring               audiologists               must               be               very               detailed               oriented,               excel               at               science,               and               enjoy               helping               others.

    If               you               desire               to               become               an               audiologist,               you               will               need               to               eventually               complete               a               doctor               of               audiology               (AuD)               degree.

    If               you               are               in               high               school,               now               is               the               time               to               consider               your               college               major.

    A               minor               in               sign               language               could               also               be               very               beneficial.
                   Numerous               schools               across               the               country               offer               a               BA               in               communication               disorders               and               a               BA               in               speech               language               pathology.

    Both               are               great               choices.

                   If               you               are               exploring               careers,               and               wondering               if               audiology               is               for               you,               try               to               find               a               job               shadow               opportunity.

    About 'admissions jmu'|Summer Happenings Part 2








    Harrisonburg,               VA               and               cinema               or               even               just               plain               movie               assignments               are               problematic.

    Despite               a               modern               multiplex               in               town,               a               campus               theatre               on               the               campus               of               James               Madison               University,               and               a               movie               program               on               the               Eastern               Mennonite               University               campus,               multiple               queries               at               both               universities               and               in               what               passes               as               the               local               indie               newspaper               have               yielded               absolutely               no               evidence               of               a               official               film               club               in               the               area,               much               less               a               informal               group               of               misfits               watching               countless               DVD               playings               of               "Star               Wars."               An               earlier               article               I               wrote               attempted               to               explore               the               culture               of               midnight               movies               in               this               community               dense               with               college               students               without               successful.

    That               piece               established               that               midight               movies               are               a               rarity               in               the               Harrisonburg,               VA               area,               despite               the               presence               of               one               enormous               university               and               one               smaller               one               within               the               city               limits,               and               yet               another               small               college               within               spitting               distance.

    That's               right,               even               James               Madison               University's               17,000               students,               Eastern               Mennonite               University's               1,600               students,               and               Bridgewater               College's               1,500               in               addition               to               Harrisonburg,               VA's               regular               population               can't               -               or               won't               -               support               a               midnight               movie               program               in               the               area.

    My               latest               research               indicates               that               not               only               does               the               area               lack               a               midnight               movie               program,               it               appears               to               lack               even               an               informal               program               for               any               time               of               day.
                   Why?
                   Again,               at               the               time               of               my               first               article,               I               attempted               to               explain               this               discrepancy               as               an               odd               void               perhaps               best               explained               by               a               review               of               the               background               cultural               history               of               the               community.

    Harrisonburg               was               founded               by               pioneers               whose               primary               activity               involved               agriculture.

    Twenty               percent               of               modern               Harrisonburg               residents               cite               their               ancestry               as               German               with               Irish               and               English               following               at               half               that               rate               each.

    Apparently,               the               majority               of               the               German               settling               in               the               area               were               German               Anabaptists,               specifically               the               Amish,               Brethren,               Hutterites               and               Mennonite.
                   Further,               the               recent               history               of               James               Madison               University               students               and               the               community               has               not               been               good.

    Student               riots               during               last               year's               SpringFest               and               a               collapsed               apartment               building               from               a               very               over-attended               party               would               not               make               a               community               actively               look               for               ways               to               keep               these               students               awake               and               active               past               the               midnight               hour.
                   I               stopped               at               that               explanation               in               my               earlier               article               and               perhaps               too               soon.

    On               reconsideration               and               in               fruitlessly               searching               other               university               areas               for               movie               programs               -               areas               that               cite               entirely               different               cultural               backgrounds               -               I               realize               that               there               may               be               more               to               this.

    For               the               first               time,               movies               are               available               not               only               on               a               big               screen               that               involves               leaving               home               and               gathering               in               a               group,               or               even               shown               in               a               box               or               flat               screen               that               you               might               or               might               not               share               watching               with               a               roommate               or               family               member,               but               whole               movies               are               now               offered,               for               rental               or               even               sale,               to               your               smartphone.

    I               can't               think               of               any               less               public               showing,               any               less               social               way,               frankly               any               odder               way               to               watch               a               movie               than               on               a               damn               phone.
                   No               wonder               we               can't               find               film               groups.

    Phones               are               too               small               for               more               than               one               or               two               to               see               the               flick               and               you               can't               exactly               enjoy               big               screen               effects               on               an               object               held               in               your               hand.
