A professor at Transylvania University in Lexington, Kentucky said he will closely monitor Nick Sandmann, a newly admitted student who is openly conservative, for possible “unethical behavior.”

The remark came after Samuel Crankshaw, a Transylvania graduate who works with ACLU Kentucky, questioned on Facebook the university’s decision to accept Nick Sandmann. “Having experienced the incredibly high standards Transy requires for admission and then holds its students to, this seems like a slap in the face,” Crankshaw wrote, labeling the freshman “a provocateur in training with no intention of learning.”
