SOUTHFIELD, Mich. (WJBK) -- This week on "Let It Rip", we tackle the issue of free speech. An Oakland University student is suspended after writing about his attraction to his female professor.

Joining Huel Perkins and Charlie Langton on our panels to discuss these topics are Corlett, Detroit News columnist Laura Berman and author Elizabeth Atkins, as well as Glenn Clark, president of the Michigan Faith and Freedom Coalition, attorney Tracey Henry and state Democratic Party Chair Mark Brewer.
