I have been absolutely clear throughout my presidency, post presidency, the idea of canceling a speaker who comes to your campus trying to shout them down and not letting them speak, even if I find their ideas obnoxious. Well, that's not. Not only is that not what universities should be about, that's not what America should be about. You let them speak and then you tell them why they're wrong. That's how you win the argument. Sort of the delicacy of sensibilities in classrooms. (34:25–35:00)
