BU dean doesn't like Hitler Internet meme

The Daily Free Press reports a BU dean admires the creativity of students doing mashups to protest a cut in the number of pages they can print for free on university printers, but says his hackles were raised when they remixed a bunker scene from a movie about the fall of Hitler.

That particular clip has been used to protest and comment on everything from getting banned from Xbox Live to Sarah Palin's resignation.

"I don't want to own my own printer!" Hitler yells at one point.

Ed. note to BU journos: Interesting story, but, really, guys, why not link to the video the story is about?

Go back on the Slimfast.
