Marquette's letter to campus:

https://today.marquette.edu/2018/04/update-from-university-leaders-april-25-2018/

Also apparently there was an open campus meeting of some sort last evening.  Many frustrations expressed by minority students that this just part of a larger problem.

Pleased that the university is taking this issue seriously.  Unacceptable on every level.

When I'm dictator for life this will serve as Item 1 on my justification for bringing back parading people through the town square and allowing them to be hit with rotten food.

Syracuse just went through the whole thing with the frat.  The line between racist and "satire" is quite clear.  Good to see the administration acting quickly, and hope they follow through and revoke the offender(s) privilege to attend MU.

Personally, I prefer tar and feathering people, but the rotten food is a bit more humane.

Important question.  When they are being paraded through the town square, are they clothed, or not (ala Game of Thrones).

And based on personal observation, also unacceptable to the overwhelming majority of Marquette students.

My question is why do they blur their faces in the picture? After doing something like that I personally don't believe that they should be entitled to being protected from public view.

Then again, I'm not a lawyer and maybe there's a legal reason they blur their faces?

They can't confirm they aren't minors.

Gotcha, figured it was an issue with being a minor but convinced myself otherwise since they're all college kids.

Except the students have now sued the school for not allowing them to be racists .
