There outta be a law against free speech in this country...

Washington University of St. Louis appears to be a private institution. As such, the administration does have the right to censor speech they deem inappropriate. If it was a publicly, i.e. state funded, school, then the faculty member might have an argument regarding his freedom of speech.
