http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-50k-bails-for-northwestern-university-students-accused-of-chapel-vandalism-20160312-story.html Once inside the chapel, the pair spray-painted an expletive and a slur against African-Americans with a swastika on the chapel hallway, Assistant Cook County State's Attorney Brooke Shupe told the court. In a separate area, they spray-painted a derogatory word for homosexuals on a wall, along with lines spray-painted over photos of Muslim students. The young men also spray-painted penises in several places around the church, including on a piano in the chapel, above the word “God” in a hallway, and in a stairwell where they also painted the word “Trump,” authorities said, Shupe said. I have classes and have interacted with these kids. And man, I never saw it coming. It's amazing how some people can smile in your face and do something so heinous and discriminatory behind your back. People think racism in college only happens in the South and think elite schools are immune. Clearly not. To disgrace a place of worship with homophobia, anti-semiticism and racism? It's just disgraceful. And I mean gosh, to go after so many different groups too? Sounds like the work of some neo-nazi groups! I'm just shocked. Very proud of the university for acting swiftly and promptly expelling these two morons.
