In their article "What Students Think About Free Speech," Erwin Chemerinsky and Howard Gillman argue that:
A) Students in general are very knowledgeable about the history of free speech.
B) This generation of students have admirable instincts about the importance of protecting others against hateful, discriminatory, or intolerant speech, especially in educational settings.
C) Students come to college having already learned about the historic link between free speech and the protection of dissenters and vulnerable groups in society.
D) Students understand the importance of defending hate speech.
E) The best way to make sure students appreciate the importance of free speech values is to help them understand that they have been coddled and need to have thicker skins when it comes to speech they don't like.
