<p>“Yes usually that is the case but not sure how many ‘thinking’ liberals you get at Oberlin. Not being used to or even seeing the necessity to defend their positions folks at schools like that usually just respond with invective or a pie in the face.”</p>
<p>Does patuxent have the least bit of actual experience with Oberlin to support this ridiculous overgeneralization? Since I’m one of the “folks at schools like that”–Oberlin, in fact–I take great exception to his charge. All my friends at Oberlin take considerable pride in reasoned, civil debate and respect for diversity. I don’t know any pie-throwers, literal or otherwise.</p>
