Columbia University's Edmund S. Phelps was named the winner of the 2006 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics.
Phelps research focused on the relationship between short-term and long-term policies in econonmics...http://www.columbia.edu/~esp2/
And everyone at Columbia University said..."Yea!"
But, somewhere on the other side of the campus...students were having a dumb attack...perhaps hoping to win the Ig Nobel Prize.
A speaker was stating his opposition to illegal immigration when protesters stormed the stage and forced him to stop.
Columbia's prez said he would have none of that nonsense. Students can speak, faculty can speak. Students can listen or not. But no one has 'the right or the power to use the cover of protest' to stop a speaker. Right!
Okay...Columbia, which is it you want first - the Nobel Prize or the Dumb Attack Award?
