Students punished for chalk drawings at forum

A 52-piece box of chalk and an attempt at free expression led to a campus cleanup and some community service. On an unseasonably warm Tuesday two weeks ago, freshman Michael Rogers decided to add some color to the forum with the chalk he had bought on a whim four days before. He stayed there for nearly three hours, talking with people and reading, hoping to incite students to have some impromptu artistic fun.
