PanARMENIAN.Net - Italian senators voted this week in favor of a bill criminalizing the denial of the Holocaust and other genocides, following changes to the proposed law to protect freedom of speech, Asbarez reported, citing Italian news agency The Local.

A total of 234 senators voted for the bill, while eight abstained and three voted against the legislation, which supposes a three-year sentence for promoting, inciting or committing acts of racial discrimination based in part or entirely on the denial of genocide. Crimes against humanity and war crimes are also covered in the bill, which now needs to pass through Italys lower house before it can become law.

The Senate vote follows revisions which lawmakers say ensure freedom of speech and the freedom to study are upheld.

Senator Giuseppe Lumia, part of the justice committee, said the vote marked a turning point in Italy. Denying the Holocaust and genocides will be punished as in so many other countries, he was quoted as saying.

France and Germany are among the European states which have criminalized Holocaust denial. A British bishop was in 2013 convicted of the crime, after giving an interview to Swedish television in which he questioned the number of Jews killed in Nazi concentration camps.

As citizens of the United States, it can be easy to take freedom of speech for granted. At Loyola University Chicago, the concept of complete student freedom within Loyola walls is diminished through school policies, as well as the administrations reactions (or lack thereof) to any speech that students attempt to voice. Under the university roof, speech does not seem free it seems regulated, silenced and disregarded.

Loyolas Community Standards were updated as of Jan. 26 specifically, Section 506 (titled Free Expression and Demonstration Policy and Approval Process), which holds guidelines for on-campus demonstrations and outlines the requirements for protests.

Loyola justified these updates as clarification of terms and greater ease of registration process for demonstrations.

While the university appears and claims to be making it easier to protest on campus, the new policy is actually doing the exact opposite.

One obvious change to the community standards was the actual definition of what is considered a demonstration. The new version expands the term to a gathering of two or more people who publicly express a position or feeling toward a person or cause. Previously, a demonstration was defined as any organized or impromptu gathering of two or more people that could be perceived as displaying feelings toward a person or a cause.

Other changes dealt with the process for Loyola students planning a protest or demonstration. Students who want to hold a demonstration must now submit a form to the university at least three days in advance. Previously, the form needed to be submitted 10 days in advance.

Amongst other smaller updates, it was also specified that demonstrations must take place within the Damen Student Center or the Terry Student Center, not in any other building on campus.

Changes are being made on paper, and The Phoenix Editorial Board appreciates the universitys efforts to promote and enable students to speak their minds more easily on campus. But there are two key issues here: One, why is it that students can only protest indoors at two university buildings? And two, even if students did protest, would their words really have any effect on the future?

We welcome the reduction of notification time, but the updates to the speech policy are still problematic and dont promise real change.

First, by carefully defining what constitutes a demonstration, Loyola is saying that every time a group of people even just two people are vocal about an issue, that group of people would have to notify the university three days in advance in order to express their opinions. This means that meetings of people, perhaps a meeting as simple as handing out flyers on campus in a group of two or more people, would have to go through a process to demonstrate on campus.
