Michigan Saginaw Valley State University doesn't like the word "fuck."

|

A student at Saginaw Valley State University in Michigan is involved in a pitched battled over freedom of speech with school administrators.

But so far a third contestant — irony — is winning, and it's not even close.

The student, Daniel Chapman, petitioned in August to put up a poster saying "Fuck Censorship" on SVSU's university-owned bulletin boards because he wanted to protest the school's policy of approving materials before students can post them on campus.
