Yet another article warning students to watch what they post online. I still don't get this. Why don't they warn students (and politicians, and themsleves) not to be racist thugs, not to damage public property, not to run campus drug rings - and all the other stuff which, when publicized on Facebook, gets their scholarship terminated. The overwhelming message underlying these articles seems to be "don't get caught" rather than "don't do it." This tells me, I think, about the moral bankruptcy of the system producing these articles.
