The term 'harassment' being consider to describe an SU student’s blog.

According to The Post-Standard and the Daily Orange, the creator of SUCOLitis, a satirical blog aimed at Syracuse University College of Law students, is under investigation for writing and publishing what one student say was “harassing statements.”

Len Audaer, a second-year law student and creator of the blog said he received a letter from an SU professor explaining that a student had come forward charging Audaer with harassment. The blog contains a disclaimer saying the blog is for comedic purposes only and should not be mistaken for a serious news site.

There is much controversy surrounding the case as the debate of free speech takes center stage, especially for a school like the S.I Newhouse School of Public Communication, which is founded on the teachings of the freedom of press.
