Tom Woods Speaks @ IU - Intro

Tom Woods speech: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiIbSEjEw3w Donate to YAL at IU: https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_flow&SESSION=Y5fBi2eaEQATmq... Well, you may know that Dr. Woods is a graduate of Harvard and Columbia, author of multiple New York Times bestsellers, and a Senior Scholar at the Mises Institute. He probably has more ivy league degrees and bestselling books than the entire IU economics department combined. But, when the IU YAL chapter requested Dr. Woods to speak on campus, they were told "Dr. Woods lacks sufficient academic credibility" to speak to undergraduate students.

This was the reason the economics department and Indiana Memorial Union Board Lectures Committee of Indiana University rejected Dr. Woods last fall.

YAL Chapter President, Sam Spaiser, and the chapter members were shocked to receive such a flimsy excuse -- especially when the administration already accepted and paid for a request to bring a disgraced former presidential candidate, John Edwards, to campus. (YAL at IU raised the money on their own) Read more: http://www.yaliberty.org/posts/tom-woods-vs-iu-economics-department The music is from Derek Webb's album, "Feedback." I recommend it.

Dr. Woods lacks sufficient academic credibility? I almost gave myself a stroke I laughed so hard when I read that. The questioning of Dr. Wood’s academic credibility cries out to be held up to ridicule. If they were true academics, dedicated to enlightenment, knowledge and honest discussion, they would welcome Dr. Woods with open arms. It makes one wonder, why do they fear him so much? Keep up the good work YAL!
