Students call for Ferguson prosecutor, St. Louis police chief’s invitations rescinded

Students call for Ferguson prosecutor, St. Louis police chief’s invitations rescinded:
"...The Thin Blue Line: Policing Post-Ferguson” is set for Feb. 20 and will be hosted by the Saint Louis University Public Law Review.

 The event is described as a chance to “identify legal challenges that face law enforcement on the streets today” and will bring together academics, law enforcement and others for a “candid discussion of the changing environment in which our justice system is closely examined.”
But the student-led, St. Louis-based activist group Tribe X wants the forum shelved.
 “We believe this event as scheduled runs counter to [community healing] and is a significant step back in regards to SLU’s relationship with the community and in particular the people who have so passionately and vehemently stood for justice all these months,” the group’s recent letter stated to campus officials.
In addition to Tribe X, a group of law students spoke out against McCulloch’s invitation at a university town hall meeting on Monday afternoon.
And at least one SLU law professor publicly condemned McCulloch’s invitation."
