The interesting thing is that Furman University officials tried to stop students from protesting.  The students had prepared pamphlets that had Jesse Jackson quotes.  I am glad the officials backed off once the students reminded them that it was their 1st Amendment rights.  I imagine that those same officials wouldn't have stopped protests of conservative speakers.  However, Furman has always gotten conservative speakers to come down through the years.  I know they have had Chuck Norris and Ann Coulter in the recent past.  Furman has a very active College Republicans chapter.

I like Furman; it was close to my alma mater in Greenville, SC.
