In many instances like this, the graffiti ends up being a hoax. In this case, I’m not so sure.
The Jerusalem Post reports:
Loyola University Chicago faces antisemitic vandalism
A swastika was discovered on Friday inside a social space designated for Jewish students at Loyola University Chicago, according to a report by The Chicago Sun-Times. The reprehensible symbol was found drawn in the Hillel Social Room located within the Damen Student Center, sparking immediate concern among students and faculty alike.
The university responded promptly by issuing a campus safety alert and later detailed the incident, which Vice President for Student Development Keith Champagne described as “heinous.” In a strong condemnation, Champagne stated, “Loyola University Chicago condemns this hateful act of antisemitism and discrimination absolutely and unequivocally.”
According to the Sun-Times, this incident follows the discovery of other “obscene items” in the same room earlier in the week, intensifying the distress within the university’s Jewish community. Metro Chicago Hillel at Loyola expressed outrage over these repeated acts of vandalism, highlighting the violation of their community’s security and the heightened sense of unsafety among Jewish students on campus.
The university’s Office for Equity and Compliance is investigating the vandalism, with a firm commitment expressed by Champagne to combat antisemitism and ensure the safety and support of the Jewish community at Loyola.

Back in the 1980s Loyola used to have a joint degree program with a Chicago area Yeshiva. The boys would get college credits for learning Torah at the Yeshiva during the day & take secular courses at the Loyola campus at night.
Ppl quipped that young men chose that Yeshiva so that they could learn Yomam v’Loyola (a pun on the commandment to study Torah Yomam v’lailah – day & night).
The headline had me asking how they got the graffiti into space. Some kind of special graffiti rocket launcher?
Given the fact that some of the school’s students are bigots, this is bound to happen.
Unfortunately, we need cameras everywhere to either deter or catch the perps.

Wait, why isn’t the Equal Protection Project on this?
Why is there a segregated space at a college that is reserved for one particular ethnicity? If there was a “social space designated for Black students” at Cornell, would EPP be all over it?
