Pace University Students Face Expulsion Over Protest

HeadlineMar 13, 2006

The Campus Antiwar Network is calling on supporters to phone New York’s Pace University today in order to request charges be dropped against two student activists. The students, Brian Kelly and Lauren Giaccone, say the university is threatening to expel them for distributing flyers and for protesting without a permit. The charges were filed after the two students called Bill Clinton a “war criminal” during his speech at the school last week. After being removed from the speech, the students said they were detained, searched and questioned by law enforcement and Secret Service agents.
