UNL under fire from national groups for punishing lecturer after clash with conservative student

Two national groups contend the University of Nebraska-Lincoln may have violated a lecturer’s rights by punishing her for angry political speech toward a student.
The situation reflects the bind UNL and NU administrators are in over an Aug. 25 incident in which a graduate student-lecturer, Courtney Lawton, belittled a sophomore who was recruiting for a conservative group.
Now the two academic freedom organizations say the lecturer didn’t receive due process, and at least one of those groups says she shouldn’t have been fired, effective at the end of this school year. The other organization plans to investigate further with the possibility of putting UNL on its censure list.
Meanwhile, at least three state senators believe administrators should have acted more urgently. They contend the incident confirms a long-suspected liberal bias at UNL.

Whether students looking for information who stop by that recruiting station know that they are receiving propaganda from the kook brothers. And the aims of the kook brothers for this country.
Well, everyone is about to find out, anyway. The kooks are running the country, as the tax scam shows. They will make $20 billion each stolen from the middle class, working class, and poor.
I hope those kook stooges manning the recruiting stations are proud. Their presence infecting college and university campuses is apparently not countered at all by recruiters representing FDR's America, which built the greatest mass prosperity in the history of the world and now is being eviscerated.
