I really hope you're kidding.
 
A) The Supreme Court has repeatedly ruled that profane language is not
protected by the constitution, and
B) Attending a hockey game is a voluntary act on your part; the school is
completely within its rights to ask you to do (or not do) certain things in
exchange for the PRIVILEGE of attending a hockey game.  Even if you did have
a constitutionally protected right to profane speech (which you don't), the
school can ask you to waive this right in order to attend a hockey game.  If
you don't like the conditions, don't go in the first place and save them the
trouble of kicking you out.

Robb Newman notes:
The administration ...removing profane students
from the rink.  Those who cheer appropriately can continue to enjoy the
traditional pieces, and those few who cheer inappropriately don't "muck"
things up for everyone else....kick a couple of students out each time,
and you'd be amazed how many "Rah Rah Rah's" you'd hear by the end of the
game.
 
So who is the adminstration? Hitler, Stalin, King George VI, McCarthy, and
J.
Edgar Hoover? Odd how attendance at a hockey game means you must check your
right to free speech at the door.
