MU chancellor to confer with Board of Curators about body camera footage of Melissa Click
MISSOURIAN STAFF 19 hrs ago  4
COLUMBIA — MU assistant professor of communication Melissa Click's interaction with a Columbia police officer during the university's Homecoming Parade on Oct. 10 warrants a conversation with the University of Missouri System Board of Curators, MU Interim Chancellor Hank Foley said Sunday night in an emailed statement.

"Her conduct and behavior are appalling, and I am not only disappointed, I am angry, that a member of our faculty acted this way," Foley said in a release from the MU News Bureau. "Her actions caught on camera last October, are just another example of a pattern of misconduct by Dr. Click—most notably, her assault on one of our students while seeking ‘muscle’ during a highly volatile situation on Carnahan Quadrangle in November."

Foley referenced body camera footage in which Click steps in between a police officer and MU graduate student and activist Jonathan Butler. In the video, Click tells the police officers to "get your hands off the children" and later curses at an officer who grabbed her shoulder. A video of the interaction was published Saturday after the Missourian obtained it through an open records request.

MS Click's career should be over.
