Humor is dangerous to your health...?

Gilligan writes "Here's another one from the halls of Political Correctness. Timothy Garneau posted fliers in his dorm which suggested that some of the women in the dorm could lose weight by taking the stairs instead of using the elevators. His intent was to humourously suggest a way to relieve congestion, since many students were using the elevators to go up one or two floors, and he lived on the seventh floor. UNH's Judicial & Mediation Programs Office initially found Garneau responsible for harassment, disorderly conduct, violating affirmative action policies and lying. The Judicial Affairs Office at the university found Garneau guilty of all charges, sentenced him to immediate expulsion from student housing and put him on probation through May 30, 2006. He was also required to meet with a counselor to discuss his actions, write a 3,000-word reflection paper about the session and write a letter of apology to residents of Stokes Hall. Fortunately, he was able to fight the sentence with the help of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education and has since moved back into campus housing. You can read the entire article here:
