Well what does 'consequences' mean? If, as John Dule has said, it means governmental restrictions, then likely not. If it means people thinking you a fool, then quite likely.

Universities that receive public funding are not "the government".

Also, what are you talking about? By this logic, we shouldn't be able to fire cops who are KKK members because "that would be not liking their views".

From what I understand, schools and universities are held to the same constitutional standard as the states, hence for example Tinker v. Des Moines.
