"All those who have engaged in staging creative protests should be encouraged and also commended for their efforts," John Whitehead, president of the Charlottesville-based Rutherford Institute, stated. "This is a timely reminder of the power of the people to bring about change." Signage bans of various sorts remain on the books at Virginia Tech, James Madison, and VCU. Is it time to sit Virginia college presidents down for bonehead civil-liberties courses?
