EXCERPT:
GRANT: "I think policing speech is an extremely complicated and dangerous endeavor. But I think it’s been a long time since our policies have been reviewed and rethought, and I think we have a responsibility to take a look at them and say, 'We don’t want to have a hostile environment.' We also need to be consistent in our moral clarity and our enforcement. If we’re going to police speech around telling students that they can’t cause emotional discomfort for their classmates, then we certainly need to be equally consistent and strong on the question of, can they call for violence against students and threaten their physical safety? So I think we have a lot of thinking and hard work ahead, and not entirely sure where it's going to land."
