THE USE OF STUDENT CONDUCT CODES TO CENSOR COLLEGE STUDENTS’ ONLINE SPEECH DARRYN CATHRYN BECKSTROM* INTRODUCTION Matthew Walston, an undergraduate student at the University of Central Florida, was like many other college students. He had an account on the social networking site, Facebook, and he used it to interact with other college students.1 A few years ago, Walston used his account to create a group titled, “Victor Perez is a Jerk and a Fool,” to protest Perez’s candidacy for Student Senate.2 Perez subsequently filed a complaint with Central Florida’s Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities, claiming that Walston had engaged in “personal abuse” against him, in violation of the school’s student conduct code.3 The online form Perez used to report the violation, a “Golden Rule Incident Report Form,” asked students to 4 determine whether the incident occurred on-campus or off-campus. * B.A., University of Minnesota; M.A., M.P.A., University of Wisconsin-Madison; Ph.D. candidate, Department of Political Science, University of Wisconsin-Madison; J.D. candidate, University of Minnesota Law School.
