Wise and prudent men — intelligent conservatives — have long known that in a changing world worthy institutions can be conserved only by adjusting them to the changing time.
In the words of the great essayist, "The voice of great events is proclaiming to us. Reform if you would preserve. Eliot 20th century English author - Their apparent intention is to drive out of the evangelical churches men and women of liberal opinions.
I speak of them the more freely because there are no two denominations more affected by them than the Baptist and the Presbyterian. We should not identify the Fundamentalists with the conservatives. All Fundamentalists are conservatives, but not all conservatives are Fundamentalists.
The best conservatives can often give lessons to the liberals in true liberality of spirit, but the Fundamentalist program is essentially illiberal and intolerant. Conservatives want Liberals to keep talking. Because our arguments make sense and theirs don't. I expected freedom of thought and expression. I expected maturity. However, it seemed I expected too much. At Harvard, I have witnessed a lack of intellectual maturity and civil discussion on multiple occasions.
For example, during the Kavanaugh hearings, I found myself having to justify my point of view from an onslaught of attacks and insults. My friend and I went to a Kavanaugh protest just to have a civil discussion with those on the opposing side; instead, we were yelled at and told to leave. Earlier this month, when I attempted to express my pro-life beliefs, I was again met with disrespect and demonization instead of civility and maturity.
I would expect to see this at my high school, but not at one of the best academic institutions in the world. Harvard prides itself on being an institution that promotes diversity and inclusion. However, I do not see this correlation to diversity of thought and opinion.

Conservatives are by far a small minority in higher education and at Harvard. It begs the question if this is due to the qualifications of conservative applicants or justifiable concerns conservatives might have about attending schools with an overwhelming liberal majority. If it is the latter, Harvard and its student body must aim to change the campus atmosphere.
