Stock stuff for this time of year, following the usual “they wouldn’t let me take my lesbian partner to the prom” laments in May.

Is Saint Augustine’s College a private institution?
If so, it’s their call..................

“Here it go!!!!!” he wrote. “Students come correct, be prepared, and have supporting documents to back up your arguments bcuz SAC will come hard!!!! That is all.”

With this evidence of his lack of command of the English language it's no wonder he was denied graduation!

If they chose to withhold his diploma for the atrocious misuse of spelling and grammar, that might have been understandable.

But holding him out of graduation because he asked classmates to go and discuss something at a public meeting? That’s insane.

Of course, as with many of these stories, we are only seeing a partial view of a single side of things. There may be more going on that the alleged victim wants to discuss.

Huh? If anything he should be denied a diploma. “I be a college grad-u-ate.”

Maybe it’s a private institution, maybe they can do what they want, but I want to see them suffer for this. A kid is doing what anyone in a free society ought to be encouraged to do and they’re punishing him. Sounds like a bunch of snake handlers to me.

In essence, a commuting (i.e. non-campus-resident) student who is not even directly involved in the administration's handling of issues related to tornado damage posts a semi-literate accusation that the administration is taking a hard line obstructive position on the issues and urges students to be prepared for a confrontation with the school. Most likely there is more to this story (on both sides) than is being reported. Reflexively, I would usually side with FIRE on almost any challenge against so-called institutions of higher education as FIRE usually takes up the cause of the type of students that the ACLU tends to ignore. In this case, it almost appears that a budding furture community organizer is learning that chicago-style flash mob activism doesn't always play well.

It seems he received his degree but didn’t get to use his cap & gown.

I had my school mail mine to me. He isn’t out anything.
