Orange Coast College Student threatened with expulsion for posting Professor Olga Perez Stable Cox's Anti Trump Rant




I personally think Professor Olga Perez Stable Cox's statements about President Elect Trump and Vice President Elect Pence are way over the top, but she is entitled to have those views. Students are also entitled to have their opposing views and to address those differences. Threatening a student for fairly depicting what Ms. Cox said in class is a chilling of dissent and free speech. This is especially true given as a community college, Orange Coast College presumably takes in plenty of federal and state tax payer money.  

If Professor Cox has those views, why is exposure a bad thing?  Can't she defend her position?
