Student who recorded prof saying Trump election is ‘act of terrorism’ gets suspended
The Blaze ^ | February 15, 2017 | Dave Urbanski

The college student who took video of a human sexuality instructor telling a class that Republican President Donald Trump’s election was an “act of terrorism” got suspended from the California school for one semester.

Caleb O’Neil also must meet with the dean of students of Orange Coast College in Costa Mesa before he’s readmitted and then remain on disciplinary probation for a semester, Campus Reform reported.

In addition, he must write an apology letter to the instructor — Olga Perez Stable-Cox — and a three-page, double-spaced essay on why he recorded the video despite “knowing that it was a violation of the course syllabus” as well as his “thoughts and analysis” regarding why he made it public, among other stipulations, Campus Reform added, citing a disciplinary email.

If O’Neil fails to meet any of the disciplinary requirements, he could be expelled from the Coast Community College District permanently, the outlet noted.

“Unauthorized recording is a serious violation of the Student Code of Conduct,” Interim Dean of Students Victoria Lugo wrote, Campus Reform said. “This is clearly stated in the instructor’s course syllabus in addition to the student code of conduct. When we spoke, you stated that you felt badly about the things that had happened to individuals as a result of this incident. It is my hope that this experience will lead you to truly think through your actions and the consequences of those actions when making decisions in the future. As we discussed, the conduct process is part of the overall college learning process and I do believe that valuable lessons have been gained from this experience.”

Yep, those progressives sure are committed to truth and to free speech!

Mustn't let the world know what these snowflake professors are up to.

Gee, I think I’d apply to another college, and use all of that documentation to support my documentation.

The “instructor” made a defacto terrorist threat smearing Trump AND his supporters this way. And that is not a “serious offense”????

OCC is a run of the mill local junior college. Run by leftist thugs obviously.

Caleb, find a law student to help you draft and file a lawsuit against these pricks. Filing fee can be reduced for student status.

XX, XY, Other.

Which is it?

Suggested Apology: I’m sorry that the college was offended by my breaking the rules to show how demented the professors there are.

I too, support leaving Orange Coast College. Finding one that allows a free discourse of ideas may be challenging, especially in California. I believe it was the suppression of that free discourse was the reason the student was motivated in the recording. If he has documentation of that, it may support a lawsuit.

If I were Caleb, I would hire attorneys and sue the crap out of Orange Coast College.

And my “apology letter” to this commie skank Olga Perez Unstable-Cocks would have one sentence....

“TRUMP 2020. Because, F-— YOU!

(Except that I would spell out the complete word).

were any other students recording the class?

recording classes is SOP for college notes.

or is this class too “basket weaving” to warrant note taking?
