The University of Montana might suspend students for sweatshop protest
Read a letter from UM Dean of Students Charles Couture to a student involved in the sit-in at UM President George Dennison’s office.
The eight University of Montana students who stormed Main Hall earlier this month, staged a sit-in protest in the campus president’s office, and were arrested for disorderly conduct and trespassing will get a lesson in consequences from UM administrators on Tuesday.
Charles Couture, UM dean of students, is scheduled to meet privately with each of the students who were protesting the university’s refusal to sign an anti-sweatshop policy that would enforce certain codes of conduct and monitor factories that are being paid to manufacture university apparel.
