Institutional neutrality policies, such as those adopted by Stanford University and the University of Pennsylvania, are good steps for hyperpoliticized universities. They also could prove entirely inconsequential. Each school has published a statement of its own explaining the policy and what it aims to accomplish. Universities taking official positions on sociopolitical events has become commonplace […]
