Chicago Debate on Naming of Milton Friedman Institute

From the Chicago Tribune

An example of the debate below:

"I don't think any institute of any educational institution should be so strongly aligned behind a single ideological program," said U. of C. music professor and department chair Robert Kendrick.

Columbia University economics professor Jagdish Bhagwati laughed when he heard about the latest debate at the Hyde Park campus."It is nonsensical to object. . . . Chicago should be proud it has someone like Milton on its rolls," he said. "Anybody who can claim that Milton was not one of the major thinkers of his time is crazy."
