Attack on pundit at Earlham College


Pundit Faces Pie Attack in Speech at Earlham College

I have no idea who William Kristol is, but apparently he is a conservative commentator who made a speech this week at Earlham College. In the process, an Earlham student threw a pie in his face.

Now, Earlham is a consortial partner with my institution and it has a well deserved reputation of excellence. (Actually, Indiana has, I think, a disproportionate number of highly regarded liberal arts colleges considering its population.) It is a Quaker institution that adheres to a pacifist tradition.

One can have some fun with this incident. Does that make the student who threw the pie, a “Quaker Baker”? A “Pert Pacifist”? A “Pundit Pie Polluter”?
