Heighland Heights, KY -- A college professor at Northern Kentucky University encouraged her students to vandalize a pro-life display members of the campus Right to Life group set up to oppose abortion.
Not content with urging students to trash the memorial, Dr. Sally Jacobsen participated in the vandalism and was caught on camera by reporters from the student newspaper. Members of the Northern Right to Life, the campus pro-life group, set up hundreds of crosses on a campus lawn to memorialize the babies who have died from abortion since Roe v. Wade.
After Dr. Jacobson and NKU students destroyed the display, members of the group decided put new crosses up in their place and camp out overnight on Thursday to make sure they weren't vandalized again.
The student group also told The Northerner student newspaper it plans to press charges with local police.
"We called the police and told them that we decided to press charges," Julie Broering, treasurer for the group, said. The decision came after members of the pro-life club held a day-long meeting and vote.
Campus police reports indicate several young women destroyed about 400 crosses from the display in the grass in front of the campus center on Wednesday evening.
Meanwhile, Northern Kentucky University President James Votruba has confirmed that Dr. Sally Jacobsen encouraged students in her British literature class to "exercise their free speech" by vandalizing the display.
Jacobson's class meets on Wednesday evening and reporters from The Northerner caught her and NKU student trashing the pro-life display.
"I am very disappointed that this happened," Votruba told The Northerner. "At a university, the opposing views should be able to bump up against each other. Responding with pamphlets or speeches would have allowed the power of ideas to compete."
The student newspaper indicated about 10 students joined Jacobson in vandalizing the display. Police arrived two hours after Jacobson's class period and found the crosses in trash cans across campus.
David Tobergte, an administrative sergeant with the University Police said those involved could face felony theft charges and any students could also face university sanctions regarding the incident.
Dean of Students Kent Kelso apologized for the incident and said those involved would be punished. He indicated he would press for a full police investigation.

I don't know, I would be satisfied if the baby butchers spent all of their time destroying pro-life memorials, then they wouldn't have time to slaughter over a million babies every year.
Mmmmmmmmmmmm....... pie.
I graduated from this university last December. The education department was largely free from PC nonsense, which surprised me.
Here is what the University President had to say: "I am very disappointed that this happened," Votruba told The Northerner. "At a university, the opposing views should be able to bump up against each other. Responding with pamphlets or speeches would have allowed the power of ideas to compete."
He is right. Now, I want to see if he'll do more than talk.
Typical feminazi -- it's all about the money...

Fire her left-wing backside before she can infect other students.
Someone pull this waterbuffalo's feeding tube.
This is how your post should have read. Both groups are not called "National Socialists" for nothing.
No mention of the fact that she is stepping on and destroying a religiouse symbol. Maybe because the cross is a Christian symbol and not the sacrosanct Torah or Koran.
This woman is not an educator, she is an idiot. NKU needs to fire her today.
"Campus police reports indicate several young women destroyed about 400 crosses ..." Ah yes, the goddesses in waiting group; this 'professor' of British Lit must be so proud of her manipulated doops. No doubt these goddesses deny the humanity of the murdered alive unborn ... which is, of course, the sovereign prerogative of a goddess.
...and every one of them is suffering from the guilt and pain of an abortion she had. For that matter, the professor probably is too.
As I've said before, all this rage this isn't about future abortions. It's about abortions that have already happened. We all need to pray for these women to learn to accept His forgiveness and overcome the destructive pain and guilt that is eating them up inside.
Yeah, CHUNKY ones, to boot. I thought diversity of thinking was the buzz word in colleges and universities? Hmmm?
As an administrative assistant/secretary to the Women's Studies Program at a local university, I agree wholeheartedly with you. I don't think our Program would have gone that far but who knows.
