BC Cancels Ayers

Boston Globe:

Ayers emerged as a controversial figure during the 2008 presidential election, when he was linked to then-candidate Barack Obama. The group was responsible for bombings at the Capitol and Pentagon in the 1970s and considered by some to have been involved in the killing of Walter A. Schroeder, a Boston police officer who was shot in 1970 by political radical William Gilday during a bank robbery in Brighton.

Bill Ayers deserves only contempt, not a forum. Good for Boston College. Nothing is stopping him from speaking off campus.
