Late yesterday, Valdosta State University (VSU) , at the end of the 2007-2008 academic year, rather than December 2008, as originally planned. 

Zaccari鈥檚 early retirement comes at a time when both Zaccari and VSU are under increasing fire for the unconstitutional expulsion of former VSU student T. Hayden Barnes. Zaccari played a central role in Barnes鈥 expulsion for peacefully protesting Zaccari鈥檚 plans to spend $30 million of mandatory student fees to construct two parking garages on campus, personally ordering Barnes to be 鈥administratively withdrawn鈥 from campus. Zaccari claimed that Barnes presented a 鈥渃lear and present danger鈥 to both Zaccari and the VSU campus on the basis of a cut-and-paste collage Barnes had posted on his personal page on popular social networking site Facebook.com. With FIRE鈥檚 help, Barnes is appealing Zaccari鈥檚 blatantly unconstitutional actions. A hearing before Georgia鈥檚 Office of State Administrative Hearings is scheduled for Nov. 26, 2007.
