On Thursday, March 13, at 9:50 a.m., Campus Police were dispatched on a criminal mischief call from the third floor men’s bathroom of the Library. According to Campus Police, upon entering, officers discovered biased writing and imagery on the wall above the urinal. It read: “Join the Gay Niggers Association of America,” with subsequent messages “(GNA)” and “WWW.GNA” underneath. Additional writings included the phrase “Jews did WTC,” followed by two more images, a Star of David and a Swastika. Campus Police said they received the claim over Spring Break when student activity was minimal on campus, but the writing itself had not been seen the previous night. Facilities were then called to remove the writing, according to Campus Police.
