That’s a little remarkable, that a college can be found guilty of libel for what some of its students do... I mean, I don’t think anyone should be called a racist, cause first of all, how do you know, and second, what good does it do, but really... I would have thought such activity was protected.
Well, I guess I should have known after discovering that there actually is no right to a speedy trial, and that the double jeopardy provision doesn’t actually prevent the states and the feds (and the Indians, for that matter) from all coming after you for one crime lol... I guess it’s time for us all to accept that the Constitution is a dead letter, and just move on...
Welcome to FR!
The college sponsored the production and distribution of flyers libeling Gibson’s as racist and canceled a longstanding contract w/Gibson’s to supply baked goods to the school cafeteria in alignment with whatever activities the students undertook. They are not just a fully participating party in the libel, they apparently took (over) the lead in it. The students may have reacted the way they did, per their rights as you say, but they are not a party to the suit nor the judgement. Nobodys’ rights are being trampled other than Gibson’s, to operate a business free from exactly the type of interference that Oberlin decided to undertake. They could have remained neutral but instead chose their actions and should pay the penalty.
You’re kind of dumb and uninformed, aren’t you?
If only you imbeciles realized how obvious and transparent you truly are.
Beat it, troll.
It’s obvious you know nothing of the case itself, including what the college employees did to cause such a judgement against them, and why the college was found libel. The judgement was not due to the words of the students, but rather the actions of the college administrators.
I suggest you spend some time learning the facts prior to just spouting such nonsense.
Part of the libel was professors acting as agents of the college. They actively and persistently pushed the racist narrative and encouraged students to do the same.

Welcome to the forum. Dont be put off by the sometimes caustic give and take of some of the posters. Your initial comments about the decision seemed quite reasonable to me. We both now understand from later comments that the college was indeed culpable in unfairly targeting the bakery. Let the court’s decision and hefty monetary judgment deter other institutions from such unprincipled behavior.
Welcome newbie...
How about telling us which government agency you are representing here...
Do you like cheese?
“Legal Insurrection” has covered the case extensively. I suggest you educate yourself of the details. This was not about free speech.
What's remarkable is that you are obviously completely ignorant of what happened but feel qualified to make a complete ignorant comment anyway.
The administration for the college ACTIVELY slandered the Gibsons. Read the article.

It’s for what the faculty did.
