In my mind being prickly about this issue can only highlight a stick-in-the-mud attitude further. If the report is fair and shows both sides as any good piece of journalism should then why not?

There are millions of people blogging about how great, average or bloody awful things are. Everyone from a big brand to a small guest house by the sea is fair game and should expect it. Colleges should too. After all you pay to attend them, they are not paying you like an employer would be.

Censoring and banning blogging in this way goes against every principle of good journalism which, ironically, the college is probably trying to teach.
