College administrators at San Francisco State University
(STFU, oops, SFSU) are
about to get a tutorial in First Amendment Law 101, courtesy
of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE).
Why?
Well, the College Republicans at SFSU held an anti-terrorism rally last October, in which they stomped on Hezbollah and Hamas flags. These flags "allegedly" bore the name of Allah in Arabic script. Complaints resulted, and the College Republicans have been summoned to appear before a review panel, a first step in possible disciplinary action.
Observes FIRE:
It's not recorded whether Ms. Griffin also admitted that just about anyone with half a brain would find that distinction ludicrous. Here's hoping for a quick resolution to this that somehow involves a maximal amount of well-deserved ridicule directed at the SFSU administration.
