This Picture Cost a Student Her Degree


Millerville University has decided that this photo, posted on MySpace promotes underage drinking and therefore Stacy Snyder should not get her degree in education.

What The Fuck?!

And this is their business, how?

It is her life to live not theirs. No to mention that drinking alcohol is completely fucking legal. They are trying to block her career, her vocation, her deepest profession desire, because she has done something she is allowed to do?

What fucking busybodies!



This incident does serve to illustrate one of Sara Robinson's points in her brilliant essay series on authoritarian personalities. That the authoritarians are nosy, always looking into other peoples lives. Their communities are kept in line because of their willingness to gather information about each other and to judge each other.

Stacy Snyder's story makes me think that she has encountered an authoritarian christian of some sort.

Digg!
