“It is one thing for the institution to offer space for serious engagement, in thought and action, and to encourage free and independent use of such opportunities; it is something else for the university to become engaged as an institution, beyond a fairly narrow range where true consensus exists, and even that raises questions.” UseActionOpportunitySpaceOne ThingSeriousOffersIndependentRaisesInstitutionsUniversityRangeEngagedEngagementConsensusThoughts And ActionsRaises Questions Author:Noam Chomsky
