In case you've missed what's been happening at the University of Missouri (Mizzou), students are protesting the university's response to a series of alleged racially charged incidents on campus. The University president resigned after demands for his ousting were made by members of the Mizzou football team, who accused the president of failing to address racial incidents properly. With a million dollar fine in the balance, the team threatened not to play in this weekend's big game against BYU unless the president was gone.
