āOrwellian dystopia at Michigan Stateā
Check out Lukeās article on Family Security Matters, in which he discusses Michigan State Universityās truly disturbing Student Accountability in Community (SAC) program. Luke also points out the serious due process and self-incrimination problems presented by such a program:
A heavy emphasis is put on refusing to allow the student to āobfuscateā the issue. Obfuscation is defined as a student who ālies or denies what they did.ā In other words, there will be no pleading innocent. Such examples of obfuscation are claiming the behavior or action was ājust a jokeā or otherwise denying that one intentionally committed the action out of spite or out of oneās own sense of superiority. The students are forced to incriminate themselves and the document of self incrimination can then be given to the student judiciary committee and used as evidence against the student. No, Iām not joking.
