PC is Presbyterian College in Clinton (pronounced clinun) South Carolina.

Was the college's response measured and appropriate?

Depends on what exactly the kids who got expelled where yelling and doing....

You have a right to free speech, but you do not have a right to avoid the private sector consequences of it.

Constitution protects your right to say it, and you can’t be thrown in jail for saying it, but it doesn’t mean you can say anything without consequence...

I call my boss an idiot to his face, he has every right to fire me.

“Two students received probated suspensions and must complete educational programs and counseling.”

This sounds close to re-education camp stuff.

If the students need to pass the course they will need to regurgitate whatever pablum they are fed.

“taunted women during warmups using racist, misogynistic, hateful language and behavior.”

" . . .using racist, misogynistic, hateful, and otherwise inappropriate language . . . "

Unfortunately, without knowing what specifically was said, it's difficult to know whether the comments really were "racist" or just a violation of some arbitrary PC code.

Piss poor behavior earns a stern and significant 1st response, but not expulsion. Just my opinion.

How can somebody write so many words about words said without saying the words that were said?

But there is no definition of woman, and therefore no definition of man, fraternity, or misoGYNinistic.

If there’s a town named Clinton, I’m not pronouncing it like a drunk moron who had half his tongue cut out: clinun!

Sadly can’t even trust that they actually said anything wrong until I know the actual words and perhaps how they were said. “Racist” has been called so often falsely its almost a man bites dog story to find authentic cases of white on black racism

I delivered a dry van full of custom made weight lifting equipment to PC back in the spring of 2014. The student athletes were coming and going, checking out the new stuff.

I can’t remember noticing any female athletes there that didn’t seem at least a little bit manly. Some were down right husky.
