UNR speaker invite angers some faculty, students
The Associated Press RENO, Nev. Some faculty and students at the University of Nevada, Reno are angered that an anti-illegal immigration activist was invited to participate at campus forum next week. Jim Gilchrist, founder of the Minuteman Project, is one of two panelists in a Nov. 19 forum sponsored by the Associated Students of the University of Nevada's Flipside Productions. Some faculty opponents say they hope to prevent Gilcrist's from attending. The other panelist is Miguel Acosta, a member of an immigrant rights organization in New Mexico. Organizers say the forum is intended to start a dialogue. Harvard University rescinded its invitation last month for Gilchrist to be on a panel discussion on immigration after students opposed his aggressive stance. http://www.pe.com/ap_news/California..._457028C.shtml |
