PBK Lingo Dense To Dorgan; Wants Terms Explained

Claiming to be an alumnus of the School of Dard Knocks who is in the dark about the meaning of the "academic freedom" which Phi Beta Kappa has set out to protect, Thomas Dorgan, former member of the State Legislature, calls on the learned fraternity for an explanation in a letter to Paul Olum, PBK First Marshal.

"Will you please explain to me as a former bus driver, what you mean by 'academic freedom' " the sponsor of the Teachers' Oath law writes. "I am waiting for it so as I can explain it to the rank and file alumni."

Dorgan Defines

Dorgan gives as his definition of the term "the right of educators to teach the truth, not propaganda, and to inculcate sound and right principles in the minds of their subjects."

He declares that instead of the proverbial truth being at the bottom of the well it has been replaced by "cuttlefish that are fouling it with their inky poison of lies and hate." "Harvard," he hints, "has been specializing in this type of fish" (the communist octopus).
