Students protest ‘violent speech’ at Michigan State University- Latino group wants ban on certain speakers

“A Latino student group is rallying against what they call free speech violations at Michigan State University.

About 30 representatives from Chicanos y Latino Unidos (CLU), along with members of several other organizations, met for about a half hour earlier this week on the steps of MSU’s Hannah Administration Center to “challenge the university into having them take a stand about … what the difference is between freedom of speech and hate speech, fighting words and violent speech,” CLU President Gabriela Alcazar said.”
