NEWBERG, Ore. (AP) — A Christian university in Oregon says four students have been punished for hanging a likeness of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama from a tree on campus.

George Fox University said in a statement Tuesday the penalties are "immediate long-term suspension and public service." The school says the four confessed to their involvement.

The school cited federal privacy rules in not disclosing more about the students or their punishment.

The commercially produced cardboard cutout was hung last week with fishing line around the neck.

A message taped to the cutout targeted a scholarship program intended to increase the number of minority and low-income students at several Christian colleges, mostly in the Northwest.
