Ahead of Trump visit, UA SGA warns students: No disruptive behavior

Update:
Jason Rothfarb, vice president for Student Affairs for University of Alabama SGA, issued a follow-up statement regarding his previous email related to disruptions during the Alabama/LSU football game. The email was published via social media:
"Some have misinterpreted my comment regarding "disruptive behavior." As with other games this season, Organization's Block Seating locations will be clearly marked, but at certain times, other students can and should have access to open seats. By disruptive behavior, we are asking students to be respectful to all students and staff and avoid altercations.
....
Earlier:
The Student Government Association at the University of Alabama is warning student groups that causing disruptions during President Trump's visit to the Tide's Saturday game vs. LSU could result in the loss of reserved seating for the remainder of the season.
A letter from Jason Rothfarb, vice president of Student Affairs, said additional security will be in Bryant Denny's student section during the Saturday afternoon football game. President Trump is expected to be in the audience.
Disruptive activities will have consequences, Rothfarb wrote.
"Any organizations that engage in disruptive behavior during the game will be removed from block seating instantly for the remainder of the season," he wrote.
Copies of the letter were posted to social media.

(13,582 posts)It is their right and their obligation to make the Administration uncomfortable by protesting? It is also their duty to make sure the Student Government knows they are nothing more than a bunch of corporate clown sellouts.

(6,538 posts)"I booed Trump and lost my seating..." Just do it, fans! Do it, and let the fallout fall where it will. Don't let him and his entourage feel comfortable anywhere.
He ruins everything he touches, anyway, and he will ruin your ball game, too.
Perhaps a collective fickle, flying finger of fate, foam rubber style. Just all stand up and point it in his direction.

(12,660 posts)He'll get booed simply for the security nightmare he's adding to an already stressful game that is probably one of the single most important games of the season for UA. Sister in Law is a UA alumni with season seats; she's not sure if she wants to go after the debacle of his 5 minute stand up and wave showing at last year's championship.
There is nothing more important on that state than College Football. And he's fucking the situation up even more than this game already is, with two major television shows there to cover the game. This is an event nightmare in the making.
