Students demand UNCC fire former Gitmo commander campus security chief, claim they ‘do not feel safe’

Chalking and posters declaring “#FireJohnBogdan.” Poems by Guantanamo Bay detainees touted and spread on social media. Demands that all future administrative hires be vetted by students and faculty.

These are just some of the actions underway at the University of North Carolina Charlotte against retired U.S. Army Colonel John Bogdan, a decorated vet with a 34-year career in the Army who once served as brigade commander at Naval Station Guantanamo Bay and is now security chief for UNC Charlotte.

An organization called the Coalition to Remove John Bogdan was former earlier this fall semester and its members are waging a campaign to get the associate vice chancellor for safety and security at UNC Charlotte fired. They call him an alleged war criminal and claim he oversaw multiple human rights violations when commander at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
We do not feel safe with an accused human rights violator on our campus! We do not feel safe with the warden of Guantanamo on our campus! We are concerned, we are scared, we do not feel safe! #FireJohnBogdan pic.twitter.com/pH2KOZXUeG

  6. mmm, maybe we shouldn't feel safe having so many snowflakes in the country. Maybe we could force all of them into the Pe3ace Corp. Then send them all to some third world cesspool and yank their passports.

  8. Kids should just go to their safe space and play video games. Stop hating people who are successful...much more that those kids will ever be.

  9. If you feel unsafe you have options. First might we recommend to remove yourself from the danger. Then report it. Now the admin can investigate,conclude, and take appropriate action.

  10. Sounds like the blue, pink, green and maroon haired kids found something else to do besides use their brain.

  11. The campus President should offer them the opportunity to transfer to another school w/o taking a hit on their grades this semester (i.e. withdrawal), and return this semester's tuition.

    If it persists, academic sanctions.
