Colleges used to be a place where you could have a free exchange of ideas. It still it, but only if you're a liberal.
Colleges were already doing their best to stifle conservative thought. Now you have school newspapers literally calling for universities to "avoid creating the next Ted Cruz." U-H political science professor Jacquie Baly says that goes against everything colleges are supposed to be about.
"It's important for our universities to welcome open conversations; to have an open and honest debate. That's where we start," Baly explained.
Baly is a conservative on a liberal campus. But she says she's never had an issue speaking her mind, or being listened to.
"We have a natural going back and forth. I don't come to the table with emotions. I come to the table with facts," Baly said.
Baly added that she's been at UH-Downtown for about a decade now, and she hasn't had any issues as of yet.
