Wheaton College Launches Investigation After Swastikas Found on Campus

“In response to the incidents, the college has been hosting educational events.”

Are we to believe there are white supremacists lurking on the campus of this Massachusetts school, or is this possibly another campus hoax?

Wheaton College investigating incidents involving swastikas

Wheaton College is investigating two incidents involving swastikas on campus.

A swastika was found drawn on a white board on Nov. 7. It was hanging on a student’s door on the second floor of Pine Hall. One of the two students in the room is Jewish.

The incident wasn’t the first time a swastika was found in the residence hall this school year.

A swastika and derogatory words against women were discovered on a dry erase board in a common area on the third floor of Pine Hall on Oct. 27.

Wheaton College said it increased patrols on campus following the two bias incidents.

In an email to students, faculty and staff, Wheaton College President Dennis Hanno said it “runs counter to our values as an institution.”

Hanno described the swastika as a symbol of anti-Semitism, white supremacy and genocide.

In response to the incidents, the college has been hosting educational events. Last week, there was a solidarity rally on campus.

Wheaton College is holding an event on Friday to discuss the history and meaning of the swastika.

Could be real. Not many cases of Jews faking hate crimes against them that I’m aware of.

I wonder how many muslims there are enrolled there.

    More cases than you think. There’s been a number of swastika-on-synagogue incidents that were done by their own worshippers. Even an arson, IIRC.

      Since liberals are the kings and queens of hoaxes, self-inflicted swastika is probably more politically convenient for the liberal sects than jihad hoaxes.

    It happens, unfortunately. Most anti-Jewish hate crimes are real, but there are a significant number of hoaxes.
