    If, under the “Citizens United” precedent, a corporation is free to spend money on politics because “money is speech” under the 1st Amendment’s protection on freedom of speech… then a university has the freedom of speech to not spend money as they see fit.

    Plus the general concept of freedom of association that is part of our 1st Amendment rights.

      Logically, you’re right, but these motherfuckers are operating on a slight modification of Wilhoit’s law:

      Conservatism Zionism consists of exactly one proposition … There must be in-groups Zionists whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups anti-zionists whom the law binds but does not protect.” --Frank Wilhoit”
