Evergreen on Sierra Magazine's green-university list

Guess what-- the Zero isn't allowing comments on this article about TESC. Looks like it apparently has joined California's BART in preemptively preventing possibly negative public actions.

  4. Maybe it's just too hard to effectively moderate comments about an institution that is so uniformly and unjustifiably vilified by the Right.

  5. Particularly since many of us suspect that the moderators lean too far to one side or the other. When our comments are removed yet vitriol-filled comments by the "other guys" are left, what are we supposed to think?
