Washington Post: U-Md. Responds to Possible Hate Crime
University of Maryland administrators moved quickly over the weekend to assure students and other members of the community that they were taking the possibility of a campus hate crime with the utmost seriousness.
“The University of Maryland will not tolerate discrimination, harassment or acts of hate,” university President C. D. Mote Jr. wrote Saturday in a letter posted on the university’s Web site.
Mote was responding to reports of a noose found hanging in a tree near a building that houses several African American campus organizations.
