Foundation for Individual Rights in Education
Sept 27, 2011

A professor has been censored twice, reported to the “threat assessment team,” and threatened with criminal charges because of satirical postings on his office door.

Campus police at the University of Wisconsin–Stout (UWS) censored theater professor James Miller’s poster depicting a quotation from actor Nathan Fillion’s character in the television series Firefly, and the police chief threatened Miller with criminal charges for disorderly conduct.

After UWS censored his second poster, which stated, “Warning: Fascism,” Miller came to the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) for help.

“Colleges and universities are supposed to foster brave and bold environments of freewheeling intellectual inquiry and expression. If a quote from a network science fiction show is a bridge too far, something has gone seriously wrong,” FIRE President Greg Lukianoff said.

  1. Wouldn’t the Fascist A- Holes tearing down posters they don’t like be the threat that should be dealt with !!! Who are these people ?

  2. “Disorderly Conduct” is just a poor excuse for the “authorities” to make trouble when there are NO OTHER credible charges to levy against “non-compliance” behavior!!!

    That’s alright. The “universities” are becoming less “universal” in the kinds of thinking and expression being “tolerated”!

  3. Looks like they proved his point. If there were no Facists his posters would have meant nothing.

  4. Lotsa news of despotism are coming out of WI lately
