        @sapinker it's really hard to take the author seriously with such a fundamental misunderstanding of who the 1st Amendment protects us from

        @sapinker @getsocial_io speech codes in state universities are sinister; codes in private universities are merely stupid.

        @sapinker @getsocial_io for private institutions, the first amendment should have no bearing on speech codes (or dress codes)…
