I think at least some members of the administra tion ure aware of that," he said. in Section 19 of the Student Conduct Code, the University prohibits harassment on Uni versity property or at Univer sity-sponsored or supervised activities on the basis of race, color, gender, national origin, age, religion, marital status, disability, veteran status or sexual orientation Section 19B prohibits hate speech in the following cir cumstances "Specifically in sulting another person in his or her immediate presence with abusive words or ges tures when a reasonable per son would expect that such act would cause emotional distress or provoke a violent response Fidanque said it is this por tion of Section 19 that may be unconstitutional "it's fine for the University to prohibit students from in tentionally provoking a fight, but they can't prohibit all conduct that might be consid ered offensive.” lie said Peter Swan, a University law school professor and legal aff.lirs assistant to President Myles Brand, said the speech code is constitutional. "I've taken great care, and made many revisions to make sure it is in accordance with till! stale and federal constitu tions," he said, Fidanque said that universi ties should use education, not punishment, to stop hate speech. "The attempts to punish those kind of statements can make it more difficult to root it out, because it just guts driven further underground,” ho said.
