An appalling story about campus

An appalling story about campus politics at Georgetown, courtesy of NRO's Rod Dreher:


Will Jews and Christians on American college campuses have the freedom ó and more importantly, the courage ó to speak out against oppression of their people in Islamic nations? Not, it seems, at Georgetown University, where Jewish student leaders turned on the leading historian of dhimmitude ó the state of formal discrimination historically imposed on Jews and Christians living under Islamic occupation ó when Muslim students became angry and emotional over her remarks.

What follows is an excruciating account of student spinelessness that may get Georgetown sued for libel. Read and seethe.

UPDATE: The CounterRevolutionary and Asparagirl weigh in.
