Didn't these frat boys know or care that their chant would be broadcast far and wide? Did they think they would be hailed as heroes?
I don't understand why some people want to embarrass or shame themselves for all the public to see.

“The true test of a man’s character is what he does when no one is watching.”
For those of you who say that this is simply free speech, this letter reinforces to me that admission and right to attend OU is a privilege, rather than a right. Right wing folk would be the first to say that driving is a privilege, not a right. This falls under the same category? PRESIDENT has right to expel them.

3) If a public university wants to discipline a student for exercising their speech rights -- even nakedly racist speech -- that does not fall within a reasonable time/place/manner restriction, it had better cite some other legally compelling reason.
What about punishing for humiliating and denigrating students? Oh wait, you cant answer that....
They do have 1st amendment rights that have been violated, no matter how hateful the words may be.
The 1st amendment is not there to discuss the weather.
violated?
Are they in jail?
You guys really need to brush up on this Free Speech thing...
The video was disgusting. They were given until Tuesday to clear out of the house. They should have been tossed out by morning, with the door hitting them on the a** on the way out.
