Current.com reports that Steven Eure, director of public relations of the University Board behind the event, says Snooki is causing online outrage.

“The Facebook page became a place where students wrote positive comments about the violent guy that punched Snooki and how she deserved it.

“Their comments were cruel not only about Snooki but also directed toward the students that were excited that Snooki was coming.”
