Here is a link to a piece that ran in the University of Colorado online newspaper last month.

A huge furor erupted. The writer, a UC student, was denounced by the student government and chastised by the school. The school publicly apologized for the piece. The editors of the newspaper apologized, too, ~~suspended the writer from the publication~~*, and were compelled to attend meetings and lectures about cultural sensitivity.

*Note: At the time the poll was written, it was reported the student had been suspended. Not so. Hence, the above correction.

What do you think of the punishment?

Not severe enough for the writer and the editors. They should have been suspended from the school, or expelled.

Not severe enough for the writer. He should have been suspended from the school or expelled.

About right, across the board.

It was somewhat excessive.

It was ridiculous. There is nothing wrong with this piece.
