Administrators at Ripon College have banned the Young America’s Foundation from exhibiting a poster to commemorate the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. The offending item?

Why offending? As YAF commentator Spencer Brown notes, administrators say that the poster unjustly focuses on “one religious group, one religious identity — in associating that one religious identity with terrorist attacks which go back far before 9/11 and after 9/11 — creates for some students here an environment which they feel like they are not able to learn.” The administrators also claim “nothing that this poster, in particular, adds to the conversation about 9/11, or about the politics of terrorism, or about national security or responses to it that couldn’t be done easily and more constructively without it.”
