Yeah, censorship is not going to help. I don't support it, ever. On another note, since this is your LJ and not a public forum, censorship issues don't really apply, but still, I think my earlier comment had a very valid point that I hope you are at least considering... four is more than enough for telephone.

Yes, the deleting of posts really set me off. I REFUSE to sit down and take it while someone denies my friends their right to speak. She deleted posts by me, by Zeus, AND by David, who is both a student and an officer, and certainly does not post things that are ever "harassing" or "inappropriate".
She keeps claiming that the posts are "harassing" and "inappropriate", but they do not qualify as either. The University would not have advised her to delete them unless they were so, and they are not, so they have just taken her word for it. She is simply deleting them because she does not like them, because we are talking about being dissatisfied with her actions as president.
I will post some examples of what she has deleted, and you can see that while they express people's points of view she obviously doesn't agree with, they are not bad in any way, and these people had every right to speak.
