How Far Will Gallaudet Administration Go?

Yesterday, deaf bloggers reported that Gallaudet University's Student Body Government had received a warning of suspension. In other words, they were warned that if they did not cease support of the protest, they would be suspended as an organization.

I have never heard of an entire elected student government at any college being threatened like this. It is no longer a protest just about the choice of president- it is now a protest about freedom of speech. The flawed presidential search has now evolved into a symbol of how Gallaudet University is being administered.
