U-M president asks Facebook to shut down 'White Student Union' page | MLive.com
University of Michigan President Mark Schlissel and Provost Martha Pollack reached out to Facebook Wednesday to have a page called "University of Michigan White Student Union" shut down due to unauthorized use of the school's seal and the website's terms of service.
The page had fewer than two dozen followers as of 3 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 25.
In a joint letter, Schlissel and Pollack said that Facebook confirmed that it is working to address this issue for U-M and roughly 30 other institutions, which have also seen similar pages pop up using their likeness.
"We affirm the importance of the First Amendment and the rights of all people to express their views, even when those opinions may offend others. 
Our view is that this posting does not contribute to a thoughtful dialogue," Schlissel and Pollack wrote in the letter.
"The University of Michigan is striving to create a climate of inclusion, where all our students, faculty, and staff feel they belong. We want to take this moment to reaffirm our deep and abiding commitment to this goal, and to working diligently, with the entire university community, to achieve it."
The pages are believed to be a push against the call from several colleges around the nation to increase enrollment of underrepresented minorities.
...Michigan's 2015 freshman class had the biggest percentage of underrepresented minorities in a decade."
