Here’s the thing. He can’t tell anybody what they can or can’t say.

and I don't want to have to outline the reasons why

He's too smart for us. We wouldn't even be able to understand his reasons.

Once I got up on the stage..I would thank God anyway and it would be too late for him to do anything about it. That diploma was paid for with money that says, “In God We Trust,” and HIS salary is paid with money that says, “In God We Trust.”

Isn’t this Mike Adams’ (who is frequently quoted on FR)university? I am sure he will have some choice remarks on this.

Ever notice how many news stories there are lately regarding a liberal or liberal group banning or seeking to ban someone or someone’s point of view?

It’s who they are.

The guy is an Assistant Professor of Chemistry. It doesn’t sound like he’s very far up in the academic heirarchy. How would he have the right to ban (or permit) anything that anyone might say?

So, if they just decided to thank Jesus at the end of their speech and walk away, what would happen? Take his degree away? Unlikely. Throw him out? It would embarrass the school and show everyone how ridiculous they are.

To: All

They aren’t banned. Here’s the rest of the article:

...............”When asked if the university allows students to thank God upon graduation, ECU Executive Director of Communication Mary Schulken told Campus Reform that “the First Amendment allows them to thank God, to thank any force or any individual that they so desire.”

After Hvastkovs’s interview with Campus Reform, Provost Marilyn Sheerer released an email advising students disregard Hvastkovs’s guidelines.

Sheerer’s response told students that “[r]eligious references of any type will not be restricted,” and the “[u]niversity will only limit these expressions, as permitted by applicable First Amendment law.”

Some nerve of this jerk to demand what people can talk about.

Time to ship these people to the paradise they so lust after...North Korea. Get them out of the country.

A professor at a public university in North Carolina forbade his students from thanking God in personal statements that will be delivered during their departmental graduation ceremony on Friday.

Can we offer a word of praise to Xenu?
