“The university is totally ignoring diversity of thought”
“The university is totally ignoring diversity of thought”
Mar 28, 2026 3:34 PM

Coming soon to a theater near you (hopefully) – Evan Coyne Maloney’s Indoctrinate U. From the film’s website:

At colleges and universities across the nation, from Berkeley and Stanford to Yale and Bucknell, the charismatic filmmaker uncovers academics who use classrooms as political soapboxes, students who must parrot their professors’ politics to get good grades, and administrators who censor diversity of thought and opinion. With flair and wit, Maloney poses tough questions to America’s academics and university administrators — who often call campus security rather than give him straight answers. And Maloney gives a voice to those whose stories of harassment, intimidation, and censorship make our nation’s universities, supposed bastions of impartiality and free inquiry, seem mere mainstays of groupthink and indoctrination.

Judging by the trailer, the film looks to be quite a ride:

And don’t forget about Acton’s The Call of the Entrepreneur, which will be premiering soon as well.

A ‘house of cards’ in Nicaragua
“When Nicaragua is in the news, it is usually bad news,” says Paul J. Bonicelli in this week’s Acton Commentary, “and so it is once again as it descends into another dynastic dictatorship.” The man currently building the latest family-run state is the incumbent president Daniel Ortega, although apparently the irony is lost on him since he led a socialist revolution 40 years ago to overthrow the previous dynasty. The history of Nicaragua is a cycle that runs from dictatorship...

On this day in 1632, one of the greatest champions of liberty and someone often referred to as the “Father of Liberalism,” John Locke, was born.

‘A higher freedom’: David Brooks on restoring the moral imagination
We continue toseethe expansion of freedom and the economic prosperity around the world. And yet, despite having enjoyed such freedom and its fruitsfor centuries, the West isstuck in a crisis of moral imagination.

Does the Catholic Church oppose the free market?
Modern Catholic social teaching has been articulated, as the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops notes, through a tradition of papal, conciliar, and episcopal documents. These documents developed a number of themes related to economic and social policy, such as the option for the poor and vulnerable and the dignity of work and the rights of workers. Because of this focus, Catholic social teaching on economics is often associated with the political left. But is that a fair assessment? James Baresel...

Colleges don’t need ‘trigger warnings’ — and neither do Christian students
In the early 1930s a student organization at the University of Chicago invited William Z. Foster, the Communist Party’s candidate for President, to give a lecture on campus. Not surprisingly, the event sparked outrage and criticism, both at the school and around the country. In response the school’s president, Robert M. Hutchins said, “our students . . . should have freedom to discuss any problem that presents itself” and said the “cure” for ideas we oppose “lies through open discussion...
