FC: syracuse university suspends frat for racist video

[demlion]

You're definitely oversimplifying this. It's a privilege to be recognized as a University club. What happens if a University refuses to recognize the Muslim club, because it doesn't like Muslims?

You cannot discriminate in according privileges based on religion. Try advocating terrorism against Jews or Americans at your mixers, and see how long your charter holds up.

 

[Pardlion]

Wow. You can lose your privilege to be associated with Syracuse by being racist assholes. It just happened. It won't be overturned. Guess what? They can kick you out of school, too.

The goalposts went thataway ---->

So, you can discriminate based on speech?

Sure. You can go to JAIL for inciting to riot.
Private companies can fire you for cursing, or calling the boss a jagoff.

Except the students involved are all still associated with Syracuse. NOBODY was expelled. The engineering fraternity was kicked out but the members are all still engineering students. They all still have access to all facilities. They can probably just join the engineering club tomorrow or simply take over a defunct club on campus and they are back in business. They could be the Latvian club.

Are you purposely obtuse? I think and hope you are.

Not taking a side here, but I never wanna miss a chance to work in a Shawshank reference.

So the association of the fraternity with the University was a mere privilege. Right.

More like a burden.

More like a burden.

Not a right, not a privilege, but a burden. They must be real geniuses in that frat if they could not figure out how to "privatize" their frat. Well Syracuse figured it out for them.

Not sure if posted, but five members of the frat are suing.....

The five Chads (who are referred to as “John Does” in the suit) are suing the school for $1 million in damages apiece for the “ridicule and scorn” they suffered, accusing Syracuse of branding them as “racist, anti-sematic [sic], sexist, and hostile to people with disabilities.”

“All that [SU officials] have done is overract, speed to judgment and portray the students as ‘criminals,’” the only-satirically-racist men said in their complaint.

The suit also alleges that Syracuse has “threatened their academic success and survival.”
