In the latest addition of Issues in America we took part in an activity about speech codes and a specific frat party that posted racial pictures of some men dressed in FUBU with black painted on their face, and other men dressed in Klan outfits. These pictures were posted on a website that a lot of people knew about and where it could be viewed by the entire public and people could take serious offense to these pictures. These kids should get in trouble and should be expelled from their school because the speech code of that university does not protect those acts. Speech codes are a very important part of the academic process because it sets a limit on what can and cannot be done and it protects students if they are accused a violating codes and they really didnt. Every school has their own speech codes and when applying to a school you may want to check out these specific speech codes because it may affect you depending on your behavior. Speech codes are important to have but for several reasons.
