Hostile conservatives would say spitting upon existing practice is tantamount to destroying society.
Personally, I think that universities should be a place of debate, and intellectual broadening without hostility. As a conservative, I am well aware that conservative universities exist, and are often extremely hostile to liberal viewpoints (e.g. try suggesting cohabitation is okay at Liberty University, and see how fast you are reprimanded).
I think that is wrong, even though society seems to feel that by going to a conservative university, that treatment is okay because you knew what you were getting.

We can do better, on both sides. Don’t you agree?
