The group reacts to Starburn’s death and they offer to have a memorial for him. Jeff could not care less until he learns that Professor Kane has quit in shame over Starburn’s death and they have to retake Biology over the summer. This activates Jeff to organize a protest/wake for Starburns. It quickly turns into the group blasting the Dean for all his faults and blows up into a full on revolt. The school board gets pissed about the riot and calls a meeting with the Dean. Jeff agrees this has gone too far and agrees to back the Dean at the board meeting. At the meeting Chang’s imposter dean throws the group under the bus and they get expelled from Greendale. Chang tries to overthrow the Dean when he allows him Chang to have marshal law on campus. The Dean fires him. Chang knocks out the Dean and replaces him with “Fauxby”. Britta tries and fails to help the group cope with their feelings about Starburn’s death. (iTunes)

I can't help it, I don't enjoy episodes like these, even though I can tell what events they're referencing. This episode seamlessly blended in with the other weak episodes of the third season because, much like them, it was mainly marked by a lack of humor. And to top it off, the creators revisited Chang's power-hungry ambitions. / Lesson learned: If you're plotting a riot, start building barricades.
