Restoring Reason and Tolerance at America's Universities

ABSTRACT:In Retaking College Hill: The Adults Are Back, Walter Donway takes us on a tour of a university that has been consumed by low standards and cancel culture. The dean is attempting to protect the university's standards but is being opposed at every turn, and there is a plot to fire him. A small group of his supporters try to help him. They face opposition of multiple types, including violence, each step of the way and must skillfully manage the situation. This is a novel of ideas—showing us how philosophy got the university into this mess, and how clear thinking and powerful ideas—such as those of Ayn Rand—can help reverse the trend.
