Thomas says some elite campuses are off limits to conservatives

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas told a Hoover Institute audience that certain prestigious colleges, including Stanford Law School, are effectively 'off limits' to conservatives; Stanford disputed the claim and said they'd be honored to host him. The remark highlights a broader debate over campus tolerance for conservative ideas and free speech, including past disruptions of conservative speakers like Judge Kyle Duncan. Thomas noted he has visited Yale Law School but not Stanford and suggested YouTube helps preserve conservative ideas like Thomas Sowell's for students who might find them 'unpalatable' in person.
