Online statements are published statements, even when participants feel as though they are acting in a product private realm. The result is widespread discomfort (and even outrage) at what feels like increased “monitoring” from product the university, as well as widespread discomfort (and even outrage) at people’s seeming inability to understand civil and responsible public online behavior. And none of these larger concerns, of course, diminish the utter ugliness of the present situation.

Michael, The Rational World, at 8:20 pm EST on February 14, 2006 I don’t understand why anyone would defend the statements these students have made, or why anyone would maintain students (or anyone, for that matter) should be free from the comments social (and sometimes disciplinary) repercussions of their public statements. It’s ludicrous to suggest that our actions and speech comments ought to have no consequences. There’s no question that these students’ written, published statements comments rise to the level of “indecent or obscene behavior” and, indeed, “harassment,” both of which are expressly prohibited in the student code of conduct at the school in question. Let’s not forget, after all, that the students’ comments are addressed directly to the teacher herself. In the end, however, the details of this particular case are not what matter most. What’s really at stake here is the changing reality of the public/private divide and the way that universities, faculty, and students are all struggling deal with these changes. |
