This essay examines the ways certain kinds of information are suppressed and censored in academic contexts as a way to advocate a politically correct relation to intellectual activity. By suppressing and censoring activities such as race science and historical revisionism, the possibility of teaching intellectuals how to interact with contradictory and contentious information is eclipsed. In this paper, regulations of free speech are explored with regards to contentious kinds of information in academic communities, and compared to the ideas of Orwell's novel 1984. 8 pgs.
