“I wonder if any Duke students will protest?”
Not if they want to stay enrolled. Most likely they could also have their degrees pulled from them for up to 5 years after they graduate. That was the case at ESU, where I went, at least. The rule was mainly to give them a way to get at you after your graduate, if they later figure out that you cheated your way through.
But I don’t see why the same rule couldn’t be used for committing a hate crime soon after graduation (the “hate crime”, of course, is supporting something that the faculty doesn’t approve of).
They cannot pull your degree 5 years later because they don’t like what you say or do. The reason they can for cheating is that you obtained it by fraud and that is probably the statute of limitations for that.
The students need to play Sousa Marches at full volume when the camel jockey anthem plays. Say you are an enthusiast of 1898 music. Say nothing about moslems. Act surprised if they bring it up.
UNFREEPINGBELIEVABLE!
Pull your degree 5 years after you graduate?
I cannot believe that such a provision would stand in a court of law!
