Free speech on campuses

I went to an all-boys Catholic High School in Brisbane in the 1960s. Immediately after High School I enrolled at University of Queensland in 1968.

At that time, I was exposed daily on campus to the anti-Vietnam protests that were in full swing. They certainly made me uncomfortable and threatened my belief system; it was one of the best thing that ever happened to me!
