Farm group visits area Harrisonburg Cap a landmark Federal court ruling has broadened the permissive scope of peaceful and non interfering demonstrations on Virginia College campuses. The ruling by District court judge Rober it. Merhige earlier this week details of which were made Public Only Friday made it Clear that Virginia col lege administrators will have to consider More thoughtfully first amendment rights in laying Down rules for Campus conduct in the future. Merhige decision was rendered in a Case involving the suspension of 20 students following a peaceful demonstration at Madison College last april. In addition nearly 30 students and two professors were convicted of trespass charges in the after math of the protest stemming from the colleges refusal to renew the contracts of the two professors the under which the students were punished Merhige said were a am big oust and a Over broads and ran. Afoul of the Protection of the first amendment specifically he singled out Madison rules requiring that demonstrations he registered 48 hours in Advance and that none the whole interpretation of a demonstrations Quot by Madison officials he said was Quot a us and a subject to what the administrator construed to be its using uniformity in the application of regulations As his main thrust Merhige said the College could to apply one set of rules to whatever it construed to be demonstrations and another set to other meetings and gatherings he noted that other gatherings and meetings did not require 48 hours Advance notice and were permitted inside buildings a vagueness in this Standard. A the judge said a May invest excessive discretion in. Administrators. Indefinite rules always leave from for arbitrariness and Favori t. Ism i a dec Ision making. Merhige conceded that demonstrations May be subject to a More extensive regulation than those forms of expression which come less into conflict with others legitimate but he added that a a insofar As the state seeks to regulate such activities it must not act in such a sweeping manner As needlessly stifles expression or Vest the Power to censor in its the Richmond judge made it Plain a College could not suspend students summarily merely be a use they were ordered to disband a protest and failed to so so. It must be established first he said whether the gathering is a Legal one Quot a peaceful manifestation of dissent or concern cannot be punished a he said a so Long As it does not interrupt the educational process or conflict with the rights of others a in the Case of the Madison demonstration he added a the students in Wilson Hail displayed exemplary Merhige ordered the Case retained on the docket for a icon Side Rabon of such further re quest s for Relief As May be this apparently opens the Way for the suspended students to be reinstated and for reprimands a and other punishments to be removed from the students records it would appear also to Lay the groundwork for a successful Appeal of the trespass convictions. Spokesman for both the College and the state attorney general a office said a decision on whether to Appeal Merhige a ruling would have to await a closer Reading of the decision. John c.
