MNDaily : Listserv Sparks Debate

Excerpts from the MNDaily piece by Karlee Weinmann, I encourage readers to check it out:

A conservative blogger’s post revealing Kenney’s message ignited media coverage in which her colleagues criticized both her message and her use of University resources…”We don’t censor for content and there has not been a policy that electoral politics is forbidden,” she said, calling herself a “conduit for that kind of information.”…

In an e-mailed statement, Humphrey Institute dean Brian Atwood said he wanted to clarify that Kenney’s actions did not violate listserv rules…

“She also made it clear that she was looking for volunteers and that she was acting in her individual capacity,” he said. “Her interest was in providing an opportunity to our students.”
