I think you hit the nail on the head; there are certainly implied or unwritten rules about appointing a Republican to be a college or university president. The rule applies to Rhinos and anti Trumpers as well.

It is not just the student snowflakes, but faculty, staff and administrators as well.

They are probably protesting because he is not liberal enough

And they should have zero say. STFU and go to class.
The opinions of drunk, bong hitting 18 year olds are meaningless.

How many people are “outraged”

10? 20? 100?

Who gives a $hit what they think?

If Sasse is RINO, wouldn’t republicans be better off with him at another job and not in the U.S. Senate?

That is, as long as we don’t get another RINO, or worse, a liberal.

All I need to know about Sasse is that the left hates him. That makes him okay in my book.

I don’t care for Ben Sasse, let’s face it, if he doesn’t meddle in the athletic department and sticks to education, I’m good with him, he can’t be more liberal than some of the recent fools that have been UF President.

A RINO is further right than any recent UF President.
No way he touches the sports programs.

As long as he hires or keeps a winning football coach all we be forgiven. Not sure how UF is doing football wise.

Better there than in the senate. Hopefully his replacement will be an improvement.

Brilliant students! Judge a man by his political party and don’t even see if his policies towards the university make sense.

The downfall of all Republics ... spoiled rotten kids that think the world owes them safety, security], a high paying job and a cushy retirement ... Heaven forbid if a country declares war on that country and they would have to put their life on the line to defend it. For them surrender would their only course of action.
