If proven guilty, 28-year-old Mickschl could be liable for thousands of dollars in repair costs, the administrator told him. A disciplinary notice said he could be denied access to campus, suspended or even expelled. Mickschl said he did not do it. He was singled out, he said, because he gave the student newspaper The State Hornet an interview in which he affiliated himself with the cause.
