“College presents the first opportunity for many students to become politically engaged and express their opinions through protest.  Some students are surprised to learn that the First Amendment does not protect unlawful conduct even if it’s done to make a political point.  This guide provides a brief introduction to your rights in student discipline matters and some tips on navigating your school’s systems.”
