Hampshire College in Amherst, MA has removed the American flag from it's campus in an effort to coddle it's students and faculty in the wake of the Presidential election. This, after they half-staffed the flag, an action which can only be allowed upon Presidential proclamation. This is an affront to the very idea of democracy and flies in the face of all those who have dedicated their lives to it . As an institution of higher learning supported by federal tax dollars in the form of federal student aid, such an affront is unacceptable. We demand that all federal monies currently being funneled to the institution, REGARDLESS of source be ceased IMMEDIATELY and not resorted until the flag is replaced in its appropriate location - a top of the flag pole. Nothing less is acceptable.
