Here is Everett Piper, President of Oklahoma Wesleyan University in Tulsa, explaining his questioning of the adult status of recent college campus protesters.
Imagine: A college administrator who actually knows what education is. He's talking about the liberal arts, he's using words like "Truth," "Goodness," and "Beauty"--he even quotes Chesterton.
Does anyone know where we can find any more like him?

You are welcome to post at this blog. You are asked, however, to refrain from the following:
1. Name-calling;
2. Questioning the motives or integrity of people you have never met just because you disagree with them;
3. Using obscenities or other expressions not appropriate or necessary to civilized discussion;
4. Taking disagreement personally;
5. Demeaning or insulting remarks.
The host will attempt to abide by the same rules and only asks that you not provide him with the temptation to do so in return by violating them.
Failure to comply with these rules can result (depending solely on the arbitrary and inscrutable will of the host) in the deletion of offending posts and suspension of posting privileges. Such measures are more likely if you post anonymously.
Video gone but i read his letter. Pretty good.

Actually, someone who imay be tasked with explaining to parents of prospective students the value of a degree in biology from Oklahoma Wesleyan isn't a particularly good role model for a pursuer of Truth.
