Put on probation by a sorority for her political views? Really? Disgraceful.
How at odds with the idea of the university as a place for the free exchange of ideas is this? To be clear, this has nothing to do with the veracity of her views.

At issue is a social media post shared by Lauer from conservative pundit Candace Owens, who is African American, that claimed: “Black Lives Matter is an organization of white men, using the faces of dead Black people to raise millions of dollars toward electing White Democrats into positions of power.”
uh huh

lmfao.

Really, did Rump say anything about this? Your training wheels are off.We get it. Anything the orange gorilla tweets, uuge deal. Every other concern in the world, get over it.
Try to construct a sentence with any meaning. Go
The censorship came from her sorority, but I do agree with the notion of too many universities becoming an echo chamber for leftists.

It may be blown out of proportion these days (as is everything)
but it has been this way forever.
Every kid and every parent goes through something similar.
At a certain age you do not agree anymore.
It's a natural tendency and good luck trying to suppress that energy
I like that they have a Diversity and Inclusion director, yet there's not a single one of them that isn't lily white. There are hardly any of them that aren't blonde.
lmfao.
It's Kansas but surely there was someone not white, like maybe a scholarship athlete, they could have found and paid $20 to be in the picture?

Mumbles, I'm not much interested in the right to wear color uncoordinated clothing. I'll give up my free speech rants when you give up your left wing dogma. I stopped donating to my alma mater about 25 years ago over its treatment of controversial feminist Professor Christina Hoff Sommers who is still harassed even today when she speaks at universities. I won't be around, but if we continue to give in to free speech limitations, the political discussions of future generations will be little more than the exchange of politically correct banalities.It’s a fucking sorority, NOT the university!

you must ensure you are not spreading a lie.
In this case the rebroadcasting of another's opinion is doing just that.
Fact and opinion are not synonymous.
Until you prove the original author correct don't bother with it
You have some work to do
Black Lives Matter. “Black Lives Matter is an organization of white men, using the faces of dead Black people to raise millions of dollars toward electing White Democrats into positions of power.”
That's a whopper. I wish you well proving it true
Things are different today. Take that statement to your city newspaper 40 years ago
and you would have to provide some solid evidence as to your claim.
Now, no. Just throw it up. Someone else sees it and rebroadcasts it without fact checking. You see where it can lead

I completely agree that some universities have been badly infected with the Cancel Culture Virus and are suffering from Illiberal Speech Policy Syndrome, but this example of a *sorority* disciplining one of its members for an unacceptable social media post is milktoast weak, as it is NOT an club under direct control by a university official. If instead the athletic director of a school suspended a player on one of the school’s sports teams over such an action, that would definitely be an example worth mentioning and being outraged about.Mumbles, I'm not much interested in the right to wear color uncoordinated clothing.
