(Yahoo Sports)Â University of Missouri System President Tim Wolfe has resigned.
Wolfe announced his decision during a Board of Curators meeting on the Univeristy of Missouri-Columbia campus on Monday.

(Daily Caller) Last week, a real-life South Park episode somehow took place within the very prestigious confines of Yale University.
In the lead-up to Halloween, Yale Dean Burgwell Howard sent out an email requesting that students do not engage in “cultural appropriation†when it comes to costume choice. That message prompted a very mild rebuke from the Associate Master of Silliman College Erica Christakis.

This safety argument has allowed these precious snowflake totalitarians to suppress speech on campus. Free speech means nothing to them when it comes at the price of exposing their fragile little minds to ideas they don’t like.
