After a barrage of criticism, Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis abrogated its original judgment that student-employee Keith John Sampson had committed racial harassment by reading a book at work that praised the defeat of the Ku Klux Klan in a 1924 street battle.

FIRE rightly says IUPUI must “either reveal and prove this alleged offense or stop publicly smearing its own student.”
