Will BGSU support Tea Partiers along with #OccupyHigherEducation?

  The more money, grants and loans the government pours into higher education, the more expensive that degree becomes because there's no incentive to keep costs under control. If the government supports an institution with ample free cash, the more overconfident the institution becomes in charging ever higher rates with impunity.
  Thus students, who think they are doing the right thing by pursuing degrees that are not only expensive but increasingly worthless, are saddled with higher and higher loans.
  It's called the "higher education bubble" and it's about to burst, with more and more defaults on loans that graduates cannot pay.
  Now we learn that the Occupy movement, which is supported by union money (extracted involuntarily), anarchists and Soros types, is gearing up for #occupyhighereducation, presumably to pressure the feds to give them more cash.
  The Occupy movement has proven to be a nightmare of trash, lawbreakers and criminals.
  Now we hear through the grapevine that officials at Bowling Green State University are actively supporting #OccupyHigherEducation.
  It appears that the goal is a free college education for all. Obviously government funding also influences the pay of college academics and officials.
  Gee, free for all? That's the ride we're on apparently.
  This will include walkout days and no doubt some ugly demonstrations filled with screaming dreadlocked 20 somethings who smell funny and want free stuff. HuffPo:

Students in Ohio will be protesting against the state's enterprise university plan, which they say would be a step toward privatizing public universities. 
"We want trustees not appointed by the governor, but rather elected by the students," says Jacob Chaffin, an education major at Ohio University, referring to the board that sets tuition for Ohio's public universities. Chaffin says they're also seeking voting rights for the students who serve on the board of trustees.
  University officials know that this will lead to monkey business and bad behavior and yet they are not only not discouraging it, they are endorsing and therefore encouraging these actions.
  A local source tells us BGSU is planning to actively lend its support #OccupyHigherEducation on campus. 
  Just curious.
  Will the BGSU VP of Student Affairs Office support local Tea Party groups with equally enthusiastic official support and accommodation from BGSU students, faculty and staff?
