Your #112 is well said. Particularly in light of the fact the oath sworn by U.S. military officers is to defend the Constitution, while making no reference or provision at all to obeying the orders of the President.
(Many will recall Hitler required and received a sworn personal oath of fidelity from each of his military officers. Stalin had no such need, he simply eliminated tens of thousands of suspected miscreants.)
But we are not talking about a military officer in this instance.
We are talking about a homeowner (the school) who has the right to establish and enforce the rules applicable to its guests (students).
A grad who publically and dramatically violates a rule or policy thought by his alma mater to be important, and is punished, should not be surprised if not welcomed at a higher institution.
This story is about the government (school) depriving forced citizen attendees (students) of their free speech rights.
You idiot.
The school is not a ‘homeowner’, and the students aren’t ‘guests’. The parents paid for that education, and the student excelled. If you want to think in terms of ownership, the school belongs to the parents and students. Schools are being paid to provide a service. Schools must meet the expectations of parents and students, and they must not attempt to eliminate our rights.
