UVA: Revoke Jason Kessler and Richard Spencer's Diplomas
- by: Lacey Kohlmoos

Jason Kessler organized the white supremacists' march on Charlottesville. Richard Spencer headlined the horrific event. And both of these miscreants are graduates of the University of Virginia.
I graduated from UVA in 2005, and it makes me feel ill that I have to share my alumni status with the men responsible for terrorizing the city of Charlottesville and bringing torch-bearing nazis and klansmen to the Lawn.
I do not care that they earned the class credits needed to get a diploma from UVA. I do not care that they were never caught for honor code violations while they were students. They have violated our university and all if its students past and present in a way that goes far beyond cheating on a test. They do not deserve to be a part of the UVA community.
Sign my petition to demand that the University of Virginia revoke the diplomas of Jason Kessler and Richard Spencer.
Please note in the comments section if you are a UVA student, alumni, or parent.
