An acute case of Asperger's Syndrome

I'd like to point out that MANY of the comments on that article are from people claiming to be students of that university, and that those comments say that there is much more to the story than is reported in the article.

According to those posts, the student in question did not merely self-identify in a way that seemed unusual, he went out of his way to mock the "normal" use of that appellation, and did so in highly derogatory and inflammatory terms. Allegedly (among other examples), when he was selected to post transcribed class notes online, he took the opportunity to further publicize a position which was quite racist. Basically (according to these comments) he was suspended for attempting - with some success - to disrupt the learning environment on campus by race-baiting, and continuing to do so after he was warned that such conduct was unacceptable.

Paints a bit of a different picture, doesn't it?
