In fact, it is the actions of the College president which are in violation, not only of the Ed Code, but of major constitutional statutes and rights declarations. The spurious issues of copyright and policy raised in a recent meeting about the future of the college website and of the Eagle web connection to that site, are masking issues, matters of hindsight and afterthought generated by the more fundamental concerns any civil libertarian should have. Of the Mendocino College people who are ending the existance of the art lab in the art building. If that lab leaves then that is like commiting a murder, a murder of the students possible future in the computer graphics field at Mendocino College. Congratulations on your Struggle to maintain a student newpaper without interference from the Mendocino College Administration.
Total censorship is their goal.
Without first amendment rights, you will not have a newspaper. Without a newspaper, you will lose the most important instrument for practicing our freedom of speech. Therein lies Tyranny.
