The student newspaper at Virginia Tech is coming under pressure for allowing anonymous comments on its website, according to this report in the Roanoke Times.
A panel looking into the situation said the student paper, the Collegiate Times, may be violating the campusâ?? “Principles of Community.” Some in the university community have objected to postings they view as racist or otherwise offensive. This panel, comprised mostly of students, then suggests the body that oversees media groups on campus withhold funds from the student paper.
