Students at a community college in California say the school's history department chairwoman ripped down their posters commemorating the 9/11 terror attacks.
"I am very disappointed that we cannot come together as a higher learning establishment to remember the lives that were lost on 9/11," Kyle Chiu of Young Americans for Freedom, a Saddleback College student group, told The College Fix.
Margot Lovett tore down the display with images showing terrorist acts and the words "Never Forget," informing students they did not have permission to display them on campus.
Her actions were recorded on video and posted on YouTube.
Chiu also said the school scrapped his group's previously-approved 9/11 memorial after it refused to grant their club active status because of changes it requested in its bylaws.
"I honestly felt like Saddleback was better than this," Chiu said. "It breaks my heart to see such petty reasoning as to why we can't honor fallen Americans."
