From Pittsburgh:

A Duquesne University sophomore will risk being kicked out of school rather than write an essay as punishment for expressing his view that homosexuality is “subhuman.”

Ryan Miner, 19, of Hagerstown, Md., was sanctioned by Duquesne after posting his view in The Facebook, an online directory that is not related to the university.

Miner opposed an effort by other students to form a Gay-Straight Alliance group, an issue that is still being debated by the university.

Obviously, using the term “subhuman” is offense, and I strongly disagree with it. Still, it is his opinion, and I doubt that writing an essay is going to change it. As with the Jillian Bandes situation, we have a student being punished for expressing an opinion (on Facebook nonetheless).

I guess some speech is more free than others.
