" College JCR Committees are not "the university".
Yes, I fully understand they are not the university .
My point is the college is/was either in agreement with the JCR when they make such decisions, deny freedom of speech , from the Master down or they are impotent when it comes to decisions made that reflect on the College because the likes of the JCR , students, are in control of Balliol.
It appears to me that the plot has been lost in our Universities/Colleges. The fact is the loss freedom of speech and expression , non- platforming , anti semitism is now reported as 'the norm' in our Universities/Colleges and if from the Chancellors/Masters down this is not/cannot be stopped then it is a case of the universities/colleges as institutions tantamount to aiding and abetting the demise of what our so-called ' Seats of Learning' were known for , tolerance and freedom of speech and expression.
I know you and I have raised similar issues re our universities so please don't think I am arguing/labouring a point . I am genuinely concerned how such establishments are becoming , in my opinion, so radicalised it appears.
