<p>^ Well, this IS the U Chicago community, and truth123 IS a U Chicago alum. He/she, therefore, has every right to post anything that relates to the university (you know, the one this whole section is about). </p>

<p>^^ My <em>speculation</em> is that ‘logicalidea’ is the same person as ‘objectiveperson’, ‘objectiveperson2’ and as well as the same person who created the link at reddit.</p>

<p>The timing of the Kalven Report discussion is simply too coincidental to be anything else. </p>

<p>By the way, since ‘logicalidea’ showed up as a new forum member, ‘objectiveperson2’ seems to have disappeared from the forum.</p>

<p>(My apologies if that’s not the case although it would be hard to prove one way or another.)</p>
