Is it the university or the government expelling these kids?

It must be the abusive conduct clause, at least that's the only prohibited action that makes any sense to me, but that's a hell of a slope to slip on....

How many OU students would be disciplined if they took the same stance towards twitter?

Oh, yeah, thats relevant. Keep on going back and trying to defend the action of so-called justified behavior based on the past.

what about the 5 black guys that made the video saying they would shoot the white kid if he walk through their ghetto


I'm sure they will be expelled from their respective universities.

Not severe enough punishment


Agree. University should be closed. First stealing the lands from Native Americans that were forcibly moved there, then the Boz, and now this. Three strikes.

Speech restrictions at a public university?
This will not end well


Wrong. this is a slam dunk for OU.
OU Code of Conduct

From the
Prohibited Conduct
These definitions include, but are not limited to, the following:
1. Abusive conduct: Unwelcome conduct that is sufficiently severe and pervasive that it alters the conditions of education or employment and creates an environment that a reasonable person would find intimidating, harassing or humiliating.

Free speech also has consequences. I'm free to say what I want, but there are repercussions. These poor white victims utilized their right to free speech. They also violated the student code of conduct and are being expelled.

It is a designed catch all to cover their asses. Like I said, they use it to suspend people for whatever reason and this clause covers their bases.

I am sure there are far worse things covered in the code of conduct that kids haven't been suspended for. They just didn't embarrass a university. That could the point a lawyer argues if this ever goes to court.

Who the frick thought it would be a good idea to video it and release it?


My money is on one of the girls who wasn't exactly enjoying the show. Or didn't like that her boyfriend was cheating on her so she decided to try to bring down the fraternity by releasing it to a black student organization. I have to hand it to her - damn effective.

bullshite, there lives are pretty much over with especially now for being expelled, no other school will take them. Over the top and if they weren't white this would be a mute issue.
