it appears that they have, at least, adopted PC principles
and are attempting to push them out into their students. -- j

I would be willing to bet that the school takes Federal funds, in the way of student loans. That makes is a government school, whether they say so or not.
It would not surprise me to hear that this is true, considering the "offense" the school is taking to this student's actions.
You can bet that if Donald Trump were a student, there, they would have a truly hard time...

let's see ... T Christian U ... could be something about that middle name....... -- j

Maybe. Are they teaching Creationism too???

Jan, snark

let's see ... deflation, where the same bucks buy more goods?
"they" must have been on the receiving end of the GM
bankruptcy, where the investors gave their value to the
pensioners....... -- j

Yes. . thousands in the govt owe their "jobs" to racial division
and its consequences! -- j

Dweezil and, then, Moon Unit? -- j

these PC people are destroying our language by diluting the
content with pale words intended to replace high-contrast
words whose meaning is clear. . this is awful, and it is being done
on top of the distortions done to mask crimes and immoralities,
like "creative accounting" and "did not have sexual relations
with that woman, Miz Lewinsky." . we are losing our language. -- j

donors? -- j

yes, ask any vegetable; they will tell you!

If we can not speak our minds on any subject, call out what we feel is right or wrong or express ourselves in any way...how in hell can we have a conversation never mind 'Evolve' a conversation and learn from each other? It is the essence of 'Conscious' Humanity to adapt to knew knowledge...Many do not and many more do not want us to adapt and ascend to a higher level of awareness.

It is a private school they can do as they like. Not surprising though.

If you disagree with what someone has said in a public forum you should debate with him/her or at least point out where you believe their facts or attitudes on certain subjects are wrong. You don't censure, threaten, and intimidate them out of public discourse the way TCU has done. The way I see it, TCU is criminalizing and acting as judge, jury, and executioner upon this young man for speaking his mind on a forum that is none of TCU's business. Just who the heck does the TCU faculty think they are that they can start slapping around young people that make statements they disagree with.. on Twitter no less?! Even if those statements are idiotic. TCU would have been better off telling the little girl that felt soooo incensed that they don't get involved in such drivel. But no, TCU's PC Big Brother brainwashing machine smelled fresh blood and off it went to send V. H. to his very own room 101.

Thanks.

Well, it's not a government school. If you go there,
you are bound by their rules. But perhaps they
misrepresented themselves as an educational ins-
titution before the student went there, so maybe he
is entitled to sue them for breach of contract. I
certainly do not advocate his caving in and re-
turning. I advocate his boycotting them in the
future, and that his whole family and neighbors
should do the same thing.

I find this disturbing.

While I agree that a private institution has a right to set its in-house rules, I think that the fact that people are willing to tolerate, and even support, suppression of opinion is a bad sign. What ever happened to,"I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it"?

Why is it more important to TCU to be politically correct than to support free speech?

'Offensive' is a "weasel word". One insults if one intends to give offense. Otherwise, the hearer's role in being offended needs to be considered.
As to your other weak points: subsidized cellphones are welfare; there is plenty of medical welfare besides medicare; the number of people on welfare by race is not as significant as the percentage.

Hey Dino, ever heard of the Wayback Machine? It is a wonderful resource when someone removes something from their website. If it was crawled by the Internet Archive Project, it is out there...here you go: https://web.archive.org/web/201410260...

If this is a private university then they are entitled to have what standards they like. Though they may still be in breach of contract if they never told the victim about those standards.

In any case conservatives now know never to go there. I don't think the school will live this idiocy down.

Pretty much every tax-funded university in the country shares the same bad policies (and the same fake-rape kangaroo courts, too), so there's not much in the way of alternatives.

I don't agree that the guy's comments were out of line, except "beaner". And Social Security/Medicare are welfare; their "premiums" don't come close to paying for them.
