    They should not be able to expel him even if it were on campus.

      Looks like a private university.

      It will come down to whatever contract or agreement that exists between the student and the university.

        It might also depend on what 'disrespectful and confrontational' means

        I was only joking

          I'm sure they have trustees and donors...

              I'm guessing this was a massive and stupid over-reaction on the part of some of the more puritanically liberal members of the university, but you never know.

              The fact that 'puritanically liberal' isn't an oxymoron is highly depressing.

                The article linked in the opening post has this statement:

                "SLU officials claimed that due to the disciplinary status of the College Republicans chapter, the student organization could not post any promotional materials on-or-off campus."

                So it looks like it's the "College Republican chapter" in SLU was already in some special "disciplinary status" that prohibits them from posting promotional material, and this student, a member of the chapter, was posting promotional material for the chapter, leading to the incident being discussed in this thread.

                    @axtremus could be.

                    They should lawyer up and address the legality of the organization's prohibition of posting things off-campus.

                      A lot of these problems would go away if they lowered the drinking age to 18.

                      I had better things to get in trouble over when I was an undergraduate.

                      You need to decide - John Belushi or Ben Shapiro?

                        If he committed a crime off campus, nobody would complain if he was disciplined.

                        Is there any crime greater than advocating conservatism near a college campus?
