A University isn't in the business of opression, like the government is. When you enter the grounds of a University you enter another world. A world of education and possibilities. A place where art and news can both flourish and intermingle without the fear of being stamped out. Basically they try to be what this country is supposed to be. Universities are very big on things like freedom of speech and freedom of expression and art.
Basically all this article is, is a student project that got blown all out of proportion and was picked up by the media. A couple of people who picked up some signs to stroll around in front of the paper so they can get an A in their Women's Studies class. The counter protest was unexpected and interesting and was probably the reson this got so much attention. After that anyone with a bug up their butt and in search of a cause to rally behind started pushing the paper's buttons. In reality i doubt many people care much about this whole hoopla.
