I prefer not to reference partisan websites...but they're the only ones publicizing the incident at the moment.
University Might Expel Student Who Criticized Black Lives Matter
He's not sure of the exact statements in question, but neither of the possibilities he suspects might have gotten him in trouble advocates violence or would pass a legal test for libel. One of them is "Black Lives Matter is trash because they do not really care about black lives. They simply care about making money and disrupting events for dead people." That one was deleted by FB staff and his account was put on a month's suspension. The other one was using Milo Yannopoulos'es #DangerousFaggot hashtag.
Unfortunately apparently they do. This is not an isolated incident, and similar incidents have been going on for years.
The solution is to find alternatives to the increasingly sovietesque college and university credentialing racket. Ask yourself why you need a credential that no longer guarantees a job, and gets a lot of people deep into debt. According to a study sponsored by Goldman-Sachs, only certain majors in top-ranked universities are cost-effective. But to get into one of those programs, you would have to profile correctly...and that's not a entirely a matter of personal talent or merit.

Purdue University Northwest is a public university: administrators don't get to punish students for speaking their minds, even if they really don't like what the students have to say.
