President Obama booed during Clemson game
WYFF ^ | 10/24/12 | Staff

The president of Clemson University is chastising those who booed President Barack Obama during the college’s Military Appreciation Day at last weekend's game.

During the university’s annual event that was held this year during the Clemson vs. Virginia Tech game on Saturday, a ceremony was held to induct ROTC cadets into the military.

The ceremony was disrupted by booing from some fans in the stands.

In an email with the subject line, “Dear Clemson Family: Focus on Positive Dialogue and a Civil Discourse,” Clemson University president James Barker addressed the behavior at the football game.

I’m quite confused. I thought the liberal college system was ALL about “free speech” and “expressing one’s self. Booing is free expression. What’s the problem?

I have to admit that I dislike Clemson a little less today, just a tiny bit.

Dear Mr. Barker,

Where is your tolerance? Practice what you preach.

I was at Death Valley this past weekend for this game! Great day.

But, umm..I, uh, barely recall this moment. It was just a split second of dissent - more growling than booing.

Clemson students are The Most Well-behaved of any college kids I've known. And excellent beer pong players.
