Letter: ​DTH editorial was an attack on free speech

TO THE EDITOR:

The Daily Tar Heel editorial espousing the horrors of David Horowitz and Mitt Romney speaking on campuses this past week prompts me to remind those of the value of a “liberal arts” education. “Liberal” meaning the opening of one’s mind.

Last time I checked, it wasn’t a “progressive arts” education. And if the editorial writer is so threatened by other ideas, then they should examine their own. 

Free speech shall not be silenced by you or anyone else.
