Speech code of the month: Murray State University in Kentucky

We read:
"FIRE announces its Speech Code of the Month for March 2010: Murray State University in Kentucky. According to Murray State’s Student Life Policies, conduct violations in the university’s residence halls may be punished by ‘creative educational sanctions,’ such as ‘writ[ing] a letter of apology’ and ‘mak[ing] signs or bulletin boards.’

These sanctions amount to compelled speech that violates Murray State’s legal and moral obligations as a public institution to uphold its students’ First Amendment right to freedom of conscience.”
