| Topping the list last year for threatening to expel a law student for harassment due to his role in a satirical blog about life in law school, Syracuse University makes the list again for an even worse case. This past year, Syracuse's School of Education effectively expelled an education student who complained on his own Facebook page about a comment that he thought was racially insulting. Matt Werenczak was required to undergo counseling and diversity training just to earn a chance of readmission. Just hours after FIRE took Matt's case public, Syracuse backed down but called its free speech violations "standard" and blamed them on the rules of its accreditor, the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE). |
