Kyu Ho Youm is a likeable and brilliant member of the UO faculty with a passion for the First Amendment.  The examples he cites here, if representative,  do suggest a need to overhaul the BRTs.  I agree students need a campus with vigorous debate rather than being "protected" from unpleasant ideas.  Professor Youm's views are well represented by the famous statement  "As a Supreme Court justice once opined, the best corrective for bad speech is good speech, not censorship or punishment."

Unfortunately that  old classic only works well when all parties have generally equal access to the "megaphone" of communication, and those in power can't dominate the media.  
Interesting example:  today's RG has a nasty letter claiming that the Koreans killed in the bombing of Hiroshima were somehow part of the Japanese military.  Should such slander have been printed?  Will some Korean-American, such as Prof. Youm, offer a correction which will get as much coverage as this awful letter?
