Mizzou Protests

Pro - Should step down 


  1. Many student organizations behind the president stepping down 
  2. He should respect the decisions of the student body at Mizzou      
  3. CNN stated "His decision, he said, "came out of love, not hate," and he urged the university to "focus on what we can change" in the future, not what's happened in the past", should step down as he is trying to help the university
  4. Many students say New York times says the president is stiff and aloof, so he should step down in respect for his students 
  5. Should step down because he has a bad reputation and could hurt the university 
Con - Should not Step Down 
  1. Mob Mentality - should be resolved - but making the president resign doesn't fix the problem 
  2. Many extremists involved- people with swastikas - so if he steps down he is just being passive in the problem
  3. President is just running away from the problem 
  4. A good leader would address the racial tensions, him stepping down showed weakness
  5. Shouldn't because could effect many of the donors to the university 
  6. Counter - Says he wants to focus on change, but with him leaving, he cannot make change
