The first and easiest thing to notice about these results is the contrast between State Universities and the Ivies. All five of our top schools are State Universities, and their average score is a little over 71. The highest-ranked Ivy school, Yale, comes in at 155 — the only Ivy in the top 200 — with a score just a hair over 44. (Let’s not calculate the average ranking of Ivy League schools, which is going to be brought down quite a bit since Harvard and Columbia’s scores were in the negatives and had to be rounded up to zero.) ...
In our survey, we ask students whether eight hypothetical speakers with controversial ideas should be allowed to speak on campus. The possible responses are that the speakers should definitely be allowed, probably be allowed, probably not be allowed, or definitely not be allowed.
How did the students do? Not well.
