MICHIGAN OFFICIAL TO FACE HEARING OVER BLOG ATTACKS
Andrew Shirvell
The official  Andrew Shirvell  has drawn national attention -- and calls for his ouster -- because of his attacks through his personal blog on the student  Chris Armstrong  who is believed to be the first openly gay president of the university's student assembly. Shirvell has called Armstrong a racist with a "radical homosexual agenda."
 Shirvell will face a disciplinary hearing when he returns to work  a spokesman for the attorney general said Friday. Armstrong  21  has filed for a personal protection order against Shirvell.
 University officials and students have come together to support Armstrong. The university has banned Shirvell from campus  and its president  Mary Sue Coleman  called his behavior reprehensible.
 The state's attorney general  Mike Cox  said earlier this week that Shirvell had a right to express his opinions when he was not at work even though his actions were "offensive." But on Friday  Cox's office said that he decided to call a disciplinary hearing because more issues regarding Shirvell's conduct had come to light in recent days.
 The blog  which is called Chris Armstrong Watch  has been made private. In Armstrong's request for an order of protection  he said that Shirvell took pictures outside his house at 1:30 a.m.
 Gov. Jennifer M. Granholm  a Democrat  weighed in via Twitter  saying  "If I was still attorney general and Andrew Shirvell worked for me  he would have already been fired." David Leyton  the Democratic candidate for attorney general  demanded that Shirvell be fired.
