Missouri’s student body president could face impeachment after claiming the Ku Klux Klan had been seen on campus.
Payton Head, president of the Missouri Student Association, has apologized for sharing the false information on his Twitter account, and he later invited students who objected to his leadership to initiate impeachment proceedings if they wished.

That’s apparently not enough for some conservatives — who want the student expelled or even arrested.

Head tweeted Tuesday night that he was “working with” University of Missouri Police, the Missouri State Highway Patrol and the National Guard after KKK members had been “confirmed to be sighted on campus.”
He warned other students to stay away from windows and take other safety precautions, but he later deleted his statements after the MU alert system notified students that no immediate threat existed and asked them not to spread false rumors.

Head later apologized, saying he passed along inaccurate information out of fears for student safety.

Payton Head, a recent graduate from the University of Missouri and the 2014 student body president, is a now a globally-known activist. After being called a racial slur on Missouri's campus, not once, but twice, Head said he had a "responsibility to Mizzou" to speak up about the discrimination on campus and to begin a student-led movement.
Head spoke to the University on April 13 to kick off Into the Streets Week, a schedule of events by KU's Center for Community Outreach.
Head spoke on campus about his role in changing the atmosphere at Missouri and recounted the events leading up to the movement.
He said that the first racial slur incident occurred when a truck full of men drove by and screamed racial slurs at him. This forced Head to ask himself how he could make the University of Missouri better. He decided to run for student body president in the fall of 2014, though he knew this would be a daunting task.
There had only been two black presidents elected since the student government was formed in 1911, he said, and never two black students running on the same ticket.
They won by a landslide.
During the summer of 2015, as Head was walking on campus, the second incident occurred. Men screamed racial slurs at him from a passing car.
“There was something different about who I was now. I wasn’t Payton Head, the snaggletooth sophomore from Chicago, I was Payton Head the student body president,” Head said.
Head decided it was time to disrupt the status quo.

A rising community leader, Payton Head details the adversities caused by race, gender and sexual orientation discrimination and proven solutions to facilitate open dialogue and embrace marginalized communities.
A queer black man, Payton has experienced firsthand the impacts of an underlying racist culture. While president of the University of Missouri's Students' Association, he spearheaded conversations about systemic racism on campus, which sparked student protests that made national headlines and led to the resignation of the University’s president.
Payton's courage and leadership led him to help organize and present at the first White House Convening for Diversity and Inclusion in Higher Ed, and to partner with the National Campus Leadership Council and the Department of Education to co-author a guide for student leaders for addressing inclusion.
Drawing from the guide, now a benchmark on campuses nationwide, Payton brings his leadership and communication strategies to schools across the country.
Payton speaks candidly about his personal experiences, including the unique balance required of leaders who represent and advocate for individuals with different backgrounds and from diverse communities. With powerful examples to illustrate the importance of developing institutional cultures that are grounded in acceptance, he empowers students and campus administrators to fight hatred with radical love for others and for themselves.
