Conservative DePaul student group found not guilty of harassment

In what FIRE, the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education is calling a "partial victory," several members of the DePaul Conservative Alliance who held a tongue-in-cheek "affirmative action bake sale" were found not guilty of violating DePaul's Anti-Discriminatory Harassment Policy.

Offering further proof that liberals have no sense of humor, the conservative students were found guilty of misrepresenting the goal of the bake sale.

Undaunted by this slap on the wrist, the DePaul Conservative Alliance is planning an event that will solidify its role a vanguard of free speech--and suspended Professor Thomas Klocek may be the group's guest speaker, according to FIRE.

As regular readers of Marathon Pundit know, Professor Klocek was fired by DePaul after speaking up for Israel in front of some Muslim DePaul students almost a year and a half ago.
