CAMPUS REALITY 2021
Posted in Uncategorized by Baba - Feb 04, 2021
The following two accounts are factual. They illustrate a common problem on U.S. campuses.
Florida State University. June 2020. A petition sought to oust the president of the Student Senate based upon his criticism of the Black Lives Matter organization. The targeted student was removed. The matter received national attention bringing scrutiny upon the university. The school’s “Supreme Court” admitted the student’s First Amendment rights had been violated and he was reinstated!
Stockton University in New Jersey. A doctoral student used a photo of President Trump as the background for a video broadcast. The student was falsely accused of making threatening statements, threatened with suspension, and charged with “code of conduct” violations including disruptive behavior, discrimination, harassment, hostile environment, harm, and bullying. Two weeks after the story was made public the University announced it would drop all charges!
Suppression of free speech goes unchallenged when hidden from the public.
It was The Leadership Institute who got justice by coming to the rescue in these two cases.
We must take pains to support organizations who fight abuse of the Constitution.
