Dear members of the Wake Forest community,

I write to inform you of an incident that occurred early Monday
morning involving hateful language written on the doors of six
fraternity lounges. While Campus Police are continuing their
investigation, I am compelled to address this act of intolerance.

We are a community that values inclusiveness. Words have power.
Creating a community where everyone can bring their whole selves to
the classroom, the residence hall and the playing field demands that
we use language that affirms and respects the inherent dignity of each
person on this campus.

Here we value and celebrate diversity in all forms and will not
tolerate hateful speech or conduct, whether it is based on race,
ethnicity, class, sexual orientation or gender identity.

Writing racist and homophobic statements is an act of ignorance and
intimidation. Those who engage in such acts, or who fail to intervene
when they occur, perpetuate a climate that at best is hostile and at
worst courts violence.

Here at Wake Forest, we must hold each other to the highest standards
of decency and respect. I condemn the use of hateful speech and
conduct. While it is a part of our mission as an institution of
higher education to foster critical examination and dialogue in the
search for meaning and truth, hateful speech and conduct that attempts
to encourage discrimination and intimidation will not be tolerated.
We must work together to create an inclusive environment that honors
and respects each member of the Wake Forest family.

Anyone know details?
 
I heard the spray paint comments said stuff like "(insert frat name that was being vandalized) supports gay and lesbian rights" and stuff like that. Initial thoughts are it's pledges from a frat but it's unlikely that they'll ever know for sure.
 
I heard they wrote "EAT MOR CHIKIN".
 
i need some details, but if you don't have those, i will accept wild rumors.

If they were truly down for the cause, they'd do it at Chick-Fil-A.

5 minutes? That reminds me of the "shit bow" episode on Curb Your Enthusiasm.

I bet he saw.
 
Man, this takes me back. Ricky used to get a real kick out of painting a big old dick and balls on the front doors of the ladies' societies on campus. He'd do it just about every weekend. Middle of the night, we're all sitting around, kicking back and getting happy, and Foxy would quietly slip back to his bedroom. A few minutes later he'd emerge dressed in dark clothes and carrying a paint can. He'd smile at us and say the same thing every time, "All right, fellas, gotta go study for a bit. Don't wait up." And he'd be off.

Next morning, whole campus would be buzzing about the monstrosity Ricky had painted. I'm telling you, the man had a gift for drawing yogurt slingers. Always made 'em nice and thick, veiny, with a fat mushroom head. And the nuts he'd draw on these things -- you wouldn't think it would be possible to draw such a realistic set of spuds with a cheap paint brush. The final product was usually pretty upsetting. That's how talented he was. Foxy was quite an artist.

Anyway, every week Ricky would make his art and every week the ladies would get all hysterical, as they are wont to do. Campus police would be called and Sparky -- weary old coot who worked out in the Facilities Department -- would show up with his own paint can and cover up Ricky's latest masterpiece, shaking his head the whole time.

The administration tried hard to put a stop to it. Even went so far as to release a psychological profile of the fella most on campus had deemed the "Dick Bandit" (Ricky loved that title) -- said it was likely the work of a "profoundly disturbed individual with an insatiable need for attention and a fixation on the male reproductive organs." But they never could catch the Fiesta Fox. I'm telling you, the guy is slicker than seal skin. A real pro.
