Controversial speakers should be allowed on college campuses. My main point to argue this is the freedom of speech, one of our first rights! On top of that, what better place then at a college campus? We spend alot of time while growing up being sheltered by parents and teachers from things they don't want us to be exposed to as children. But college is the time if not much earlier, to get away from that.
These young adults(or whatever age the student is!) deserve to be exposed to a wide amount of opinions, whether or not they agree with them. And especially if they don't agree with them. We need to be shown how other's believe to avoid our own closed-box thinking. I think this is an age (late teens-twenty's) where people are forming there beliefs and opinions and finding themselves and where they stand.
