Two college students in Connecticut who hung variations of the American flag on their dorm window have said their flags were targeted by the administration after an official pulled their flags down but left LGBT flags up for days after the incident.

Trinity College roommates Finn McCole and Lucas Turco said the college officials removed two American flags with modified designs typically associated with right-leaning viewpoints from their dormitory window.
