Union Leader: Groups protest UNH’s decision not to fire RA who made racial slurs

A University of New Hampshire resident assistant who used racial slurs during an appearance on UNH’s television station last month has stirred minority students into action after the school allowed him to keep his job.

The resident assistant, a white student at UNH, turned himself in to UNH’s Office of Residential Life after the incident and apologized for his actions. The Office of Multicultural Affairs was alerted soon after.
