Name: Dana Boggess on Sep 28, 2007Comments: President Bollinger, Your decision to open the Ahmadinejad event with an expression of your personal loathing of President Ahmadinejad was an insult to the intelligence of the members of our academic community. If you believe that your statements represented as universal an opinion of the President as your tone suggested, then certainly a superior approach would have been to allow the President to demonstrate himself (while exercising the freedom of speech that you claim to have granted him) to be all the things you accused him of being. In fact, you thwarted your own intentions by painting yourself as a hypocritical imperialist.Flag

Name: Elizabeth Mendenhall on Sep 28, 2007Comments: This issue here is not the direct challenges to President Ahmadinejad's previous statements on important issues. The issue is the rude and unnecessary personal attacks lobbied at Ahmadinejad as an individual, and more so, as a head of state.Flag

Name: Anonymous on Sep 28, 2007Comments: One of the disabling consequences of the passing of Marxism, not just as a political form but as a discipline of thought, has been the general unavailability of dialectical reasoning as it might be applied to contemporary politics. There was a time when, on American university campuses, students could think as part of a single historical logic two apparently opposite images like: two gay men being lashed in Iran and, say, a gay pride parade in New York. Now they think in what I'd call snap-shot images like the ones pasted all over Columbia's central walk way. Snap-shot thinking precludes reflection on all process and ventriloquizes for whatever ideology may be at work. And ideology, as Jean Joseph-Goux says, is "the erasure of a genesis". To think that Mr. Lee Bolinger and the Dean would descend to the level of snap-shot thinking says much about how we have lost whatever historical intelligence we had.Flag
