(Lake Worth, FL) On Tuesday September 7, 2010 at around 11:00am one Palm Beach State College (PBSC) student and two Young Americans for Freedom (YAF) members, state chairman Daniel P. Diaz and state vice chairman Eddie Shaffer, were shut down and had campus police called on them after tabling and recruiting during club rush at the College. The PBSC student, Christina Beattie, had received prior permission from college administrator Olivia Ford-Morris to promote her organization on campus via telephone and email communication.

On the day of club rush, officials approached the group and after seeing information about the organization and its ideals criticizing Barack Obama’s economic policy. Ms. Ford-Morris was visibly disturbed by the material presented, published by the Heritage Foundation, criticizing President Obama’s administration. College officials then called the campus police to assure the group left campus. Ms. Ford-Morris denied having ever talked to Ms. Beattie about giving permission to the organization to be a part of PBSC club rush.

“I was shocked and offended by her dishonesty. She outright denied giving me permission to table at Club Rush simply because she disagreed with my beliefs! The fact is, she was using her administrative power to silence the conservative opposition.” said Christina Beattie.

Other groups on campus attended the event and tabled, but had not registered with the student activities coordinator. These groups remained untouched and were allowed to recruit even without permission. The Film Club, one of the groups not authorized to participate in the event, declined to comment for fear of reprisal from college administration.

.... Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak.

Hyphenated names are a dead giveaway.

Did the student have evidence, like an incoming call from this ladies cell phone? I hope she didn’t delete it. A copy of the outgoing email would be good to provide too.

I don’t doubt the students, they should provide documentation though.

Hit them (college) here it hurts - in the pocketbook. No more donations from alumni. That usually gives them pause to consider the consequences of their actions.

I’ll bet this hyphenated fascist views the college as “her campus”. The fact that the Film Club was afraid of reprisals bears that out...they have seen or heard things in the recent past.

Completely unfit for her job.

Sounds like the school fears offending some big Obama connected donors to the school.

You mean the Feds?

Wait a minute...a campus administrator who has a education bio “maxed out” at high school? This is a college, right?

Ms. Ford-Morris

A "Mizzz" and a hyphenated last name.

A double winner.

And yes, she is black.

Did you watch that video of her?

She struts around, with her brick phone in one hand, a clipboard in the other, and her plastic laminated badge, acting like a Sturmabteilung.

I wonder what the clip-board is used for... Certainly not to keep a list of the approved groups for the event. Only college graduate administrators learn to use clip-boards to hold important information like that.

From what “miss-hyphenated” says in the video this “administrator’s” ability to manage her activities is limited to what she can store in that little brain.

That contains the list of who goes to the 'showers', and who gets to work.
