Summary
Michael Samaritano is a sophomore at Yale and winner of the National Review's William F. Buckley Jr. essay contest. Are universities today really the hostile political battlegrounds we see playing out on social media? What are the consequences for conservatives who express their beliefs in the classroom? Who should control the class syllabus - students, professors, or administrators? How do conservatives break through the mental barriers that are holding back persuadable students from considering conservative arguments? Michael brings his experience at Yale to give us helpful insights into all these questions.
