Hamline University suspends a student for voicing conservative views concerning guns: "Hamline University has suspended a student after he sent an e-mail suggesting that the Virginia Tech massacre might have been stopped if students had been allowed to carry concealed weapons on campus. Student Troy Scheffler is now required to undergo a mandatory “mental health evaluation” before being allowed to return to school. Scheffler, who was suspended without due process just two days after sending the e-mail, has turned to the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) for help."
Outrageous.
But the student in question has a real friend in FIRE--see for example the organization's courageous battle, and pretty much total victory gained, in this recent battle.
