(University Times-Ireland) Roisin Power - Trinity College Provost Patrick Prendergast described the cancellation of an event with the Israeli ambassador after protests as "an unacceptable attack on free speech." "This was most unfortunate and represents the antithesis of what Trinity stands for. Universities should be able to facilitate the exchange of ideas. The protesters have violated that fundamental belief....We will do everything possible to make sure that efforts to suppress the free exchange of ideas do not succeed. I look forward to welcoming Ambassador Boker back to Trinity to speak again in the near future."
