Solid concrete or slat wall ?
Twenty years ago, a bad joke only went to a few people; thousands at most. With social media, it picks up views as people pile on, so I agree the school has to say something to make it clear that it’s a couple of dumb 19 year olds making a poorly thought out joke.
I haven’t read the original “joke,” but I suspect they honestly thought it was smart parody. Picking WSSU is NECESSARY for their point to be made. The “joke” is that the same people who have no problem building a wall separating us from brown people in Mexico would never build that same wall in Winston. Building walls anywhere is sad. Perhaps a thoughtful essay asking people to consider the juxtaposition would have been more effective.
