Can the university prevent members of the KKK or another hate group from coming to campus because their very presence makes people feel threatened and harassed?
Again, the courts have ruled consistently against such an argument. A 2003 Supreme Court decision even declared that cross burning, unless done specifically to intimidate an individual, is protected expression. While some people feel invoking the name of the Klan might seem sufficient to invoke a breach of the peace or express the intent to harm, the Supreme Court does not agree.
