After Native American college student Kayde Langer found a racist note left on her door, University of Wisconsin Eau Claire students are calling for the culprit to be expelled.
On the morning of Sept. 15, a Native American University of Wisconsin Eau Claire student woke up to discover a racist note taped to her dormitory door.
“There is no place for hate speech @UWEauClaire. The racist who wrote this despicable comment is not welcome on this campus,” UW Eau Claire’s Chancellor, James Schmidt, tweeted Sept. 15 with a link to Kayde’s original tweet. “I ask all #Blugolds to join me in supporting one another in condemning all forms of hatred.”
“Last year I had girls harass me. They had to have RAs guard my door when I was [smudging],” Langer told WQOW. While Langer plans to submit a formal bias racist incident report, she was initially doubtful of getting any results after her previous complaints went unaddressed by the university. “As an Indigenous student on the number one predominately white campus in the UW- System, I along with others, find this action completely unacceptable,” Lange tells Yahoo Lifestyle in an email.
“This kind of racist slur is simply antithetical to who we are as a university that values equity, diversity, and inclusion,” reads a statement from Schmidt obtained by Yahoo Lifestyle.
