WILL CAMPUS LEFT "TAKE DOWN" ASB PRESIDENT AT SACRAMENTO CITY COLLEGE

Steve Macias attends a public community college. He is a good student, active in campus life, participates in clubs and student government. He is President of the Associated Student Government (ASG) on campus and is participating in the planning of the Constitution Day events at school. The ASG votes to invite outside groups and speakers to participate in the two-day event, and goes through the proper channels for approval. 

 
On Constitution Day at Sacramento City College, speakers are scheduled, outside groups and organizations have booths and displays in the college quad, and mini pocket constitutions are passed out to students. But then unexpectedly, Macias is pulled out of class by an administrator and told that because there are students in his office who are offended by a group that your Macias arranged to have on campus, now Macias needs to tell the group to take down their display and leave campus. 
 
Steve Macias disagrees and tells the administrator that they have a constitutional right to be on a public college campus. The administrator argues back that Macias should have sought out an opposing group, and invited them to participate in the same event. Macias tells the administrator that participation was open to any group that wanted to participate in Constitution Day on their campus and it is unconstitutional to decide which groups can or cannot participate.
 
Steve Macias could be any of our sons or daughters attending Sacramento City College.
