Southern Illinois University, Edwardsville has agreed to pay $10,000 to settle a First Amendment lawsuit filed by the school's College Republicans chapter.
In September, a campus police officer told the students they could not hold a "free speech ball" event on campus because it was "scaring" students, adding that they needed a permit because the state university is not a "public place."

SIU has been a branch of the Democrat Party for generations. It was once the patronage center for famed Illinois scumbag Paul Powell who had hundreds of thousands stashed in his closet.

Another Paul, Powell’s protégé Paul Simon, weaseled his way to the US Senate and after his terms was given a cushy job at SIU. I remembered him traveling with TWO BODY GUARDS perhaps hired as “assistants!”
And then micro-intellectual Glenn Poshard, ex-Congressman and Democrat candidate for Governor in 1998, who later was made President of SIU. IT WAS SUBSEQUENTLY ‘DISCOVERED’ THAT HE HAD CHEATED ON HIS DISSERTATION AND WAS PERMITTED TO CONTINUE IN THE JOB. THE TRUSTEES CALLED IT “INADVERTANT PLEGIARISM!” THE UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT C H E A T S AND HE KEEPS HIS JOB!
Students would have been expelled and blocked from academic careers.
