i dont know . i have no idea . i thought banners only are not gone after maintenance <| sep |> Diversity is a big buzz word these days , but not intellectual diversity . This implies that you believe Limbaugh to be an intellectual when the man spews nothing but hate , vitriol , and doesn ' t even bother to factcheck his news . Cornellians have generally no problem with conservatives being brought on campus Cornell Republicans have hosted several highprofile Republican politicians without incident , but those are through student groups . We have a problem if the administration invites someone like Limbaugh because that implies that the university ' s mission and vision is similar to that held by Limbaugh . And sorry if you haven ' t noticed , but Limbaugh and his views run entirely contrary to the vision of Ezra Cornell and Andrew Dickson White . Inviting Limbaugh on campus to speak at a university sponsored event would be a slap in their faces . Cornellians have invited Republican intellectuals to speak at campus events for years now . But Limbaugh is anything but an intellectual . He ' s a political pundit , and inviting him to speak at convocation is simply in terrible taste , and would demonstrate to the student body that the university administration ' s vision does not align with that of the university .
