FIRE is looking into this interesting case at SUNY Albany (University at Albany), where it has been reported that a student was ordered to remove from his dorm room door "a satirical representation of the definition of Chartwells food service" because it was said to be defacing campus property, while other students' postings on their own doors were allowed to remain.
