For those unaware, the Daily Orange reported this week that an incident occurred at Syracuse University’s Day Hall, where racial slurs aimed at Asian and black people were found on two floors. The discovery itself happened nearly a week ago (November 6), yet Syracuse did not issue a statement on the matter until November 11.
Yet again, Chancellor Kent Syverud’s administration has chosen the path of wishing things away over addressing them head-on. Made worse this time around, SU’s Renegade Magazine reports that residents were asked not to avoid sharing photos and videos of what occurred to the press.
