I am astounded at how blind you are on this subject, John. Well, we've apparently reached the "agree to disagree" point. Every First Amendment Lawyer will tell you that you just CAN'T do it. Who the hell knows what "every" first amendment lawyer would say to hate posters pasted on a student's door repeatedly over the course of a semester. We're not talking about who gets invited to give campus wide talks here. One of the things we're talking about are attacks on students. Specific students. I just googled "campus hate speech" and got, "119,000 English pages for campus hate speech." Oh, I'm not arguing there's not a lot (excuse the double negative, I'm having too much fun setting up my newly acquired Ipod to correct all my errors) of talk about "campus hate speech;" I'm arguing that of the instances of hate speech incidents, what is the universe of well established factual basis from which one could derive a sample. Remember that universe is difficult to assemble because the issue is so politicized.
