Title: A sad day on Middlebury College campus

Collection: Middlebury Web Archives

Description: In this editorial for The Addison Independent, Ata Anzali, a professor of religion, reflects on the events of the March 2nd protest. He looks back on his experience as a student at Iran Polytechnic University, specifically on an occasion when right-wing student groups prevented the reformist Abdol-Karim Soroush from speaking. He argues that by denying Murray the chance to speak, student protesters at Middlebury "took the tremendous amount of freedom that they had for granted," especially by not paying attention to the fragility of such rights in a global and historical context.
