Default How he was expelled

We had just gotten back from EKU, where I attend. He was picking me up for the weekend so that I could hang out with him and see the play that he was stage managing. However, he was running a little late he said that I could sit in on his Chorale class. Upon entering the music building at the University of the Cumberlands, he was instructed to go to the Office of Student Services, Col. Colegrove's office (I do believe, Jason would know more of the details)... he was then shown a picture of his myspace homepage (www.myspace.com/runnienoz) and was asked if it was him. Jason, being proud of who he is, said that it infact was his. He was then handed a letter and read a section of the hand book that says, and I quote...

"Any student who engages in or promotes sexual behavior not consistant with Christian principles (including sex outside marriage and homosexuality) may be suspended or asked to leave the University of the Cumberlands."

He was then told that he had to be out of University housing that night, no ifs, ands, or buts. Later that night he went to see if he could say goodbye to all of his friends, he was told by several faculty memebers that he wasn't allowed on University grounds and that he could be arrested for tresspassing.

Litterally, the only reason he was asked to leave was because he is gay. He was also told that someone, an anonymous person, reported him. We, however, don't know how much truth is in that statement... and it could have been a witch hunt.



Well, that's how it happened. Any other questions?


Thanks again for your support!
