Little support for gay students of color

There have been several hate incidents at Tufts in the past few weeks targeting minorities, specifically Asian and black students. Among the incidents reported were a swastika in the men's room at Tisch with the words "I hate Asians" written beside it. The word "die" was written on some flyers advertising an event organized by an Asian student organization. Two students received angry phone messages with racist remarks. And, an African-American student was called a derogatory name on an anonymous document. These incidents were made known to me through word of mouth and through an article in the Observer.
