The faculty of Public University (PU), located in State I, has invited Karl Engels, a “revolutionary Marxist” from State J, and Bishop Biggott, an advocate of apartheid from State K, to participate in a symposium at PU. Both individuals have agreed to attend, but both have been denied visas to enter State I by that state’s Foreign Ministry.

The ministry acted according to State I law, which grants the ministry authority to deny visas for reasons of public policy, public safety, or public health. The PU faculty petitioned the ministry for a waiver, but the foreign minister refused to grant it. The faculty members have now brought a suit claiming (1) that their rights under State I’s Constitution (which guarantees both freedom of speech and freedom of assembly) to hear the viewpoints of Mr. Engels and Bishop Biggott have been denied and (2) that the government has no basis on which to deny either applicant admission to State I. Will the faculty succeed on either of these grounds? Discuss.
