Former member of the Associated Students of Colorado State University Madeline Kamberg speaks out against the revised Colorado State University free speech policies during a senate session Oct. 8. "I'm someone who cares deeply about the rights bestowed upon us, not by our constitution, but by our creator," Kamberg said. " It's called the supreme law of the land, and it supersedes any CSU policy. This is not a partisan issue, and it's absolutely unconstitutional to name any place that is public here as a free speech free zone. Here's the thing about rights. If they don't belong to everyone, they belong to no one."
