| Subject: Purdue may expel conservative student who criticized Black Lives Matter Thu Jul 14, 2016 8:22 pm | |
| A conservative college student at Purdue University Northwest says he faces expulsion after his social media criticisms of Black Lives Matter were reported to administrators.
Joshua Nash, a 21-year-old biological sciences major at the university, received a summons to meet with university administrators shortly after he made a Facebook post critical of the movement.
“I had a comment on Facebook where I stated ‘Black Lives Matter is trash because they do not really care about black lives,’ ” Mr. Nash recalled the post, as reported by the College Fix. ” ‘They simply care about making money and disrupting events for dead people.’ “
The June 6 letter from the university says a “community member” reported the post and told Mr. Nash he had to attend a “required Administrative Meeting” on July 19.
The missive is signed by Andrew Pettee, who serves as Purdue Northwest’s deputy Title IX coordinator and investigates “complaints of harassment or discrimination,” according to the university’s website.
