Question

On May 8, 2009 , the University of Western Ontario, in reacting to the H1N1 flu outbreak , prohibited nonessential university -related travel to Mexico The goal of this action was to limit exposure of faculty, staff, and students to the flu. A Question 17 (1 point) Retake question A civil libertarian would find the course of action described in this source: acceptable, because it is fiscally prudent acceptable, because it protects individual freedoms unacceptable because it represents an illiberal action unacceptable because it affects only a limited group

Answer 1

civil libertarian would likely find the course of action described in this source **unacceptable because it represents an illiberal action.**Civil libertarians prioritize individual freedoms and liberties. While the university's action is intended to protect public health, a civil libertarian would argue that restricting travel, even for a seemingly good reason, infringes upon the individual's freedom of movement and association. They might also argue that such restrictions need to be carefully balanced against individual rights and should not be implemented lightly.
