. In 2010, I packed my life into ‘Compton Cookout’ / UCSD Noose Protest Cheat Sheet
For those of you who are trying to follow the story on racism at UC San Diego:
- Frat boys throw racially themed “Compton Cookout” party, inciting outrage among black students and supporters.
- Kris Gregorian of the UCSD humor newspaper, The Koala, says that protestors were “ungrateful niggers” on Channel 18 of Student Run TV.
- Campus reacts to racial slur; A.S. President Utsav Gupta freezes all funding to student publications.
- BSU makes a six-page list of 32 demands. University steps in, sponsoring a teach-in and march.
- Media orgs defend free speech rights, saying that Gupta’s funding freeze is unconstitutional and in violation of the First Amendment.
- Students walk out of the teach-in for a counter teach-in with their own speakers.
- Noose is found on the 7th floor of Geisel Library (image here).
- Student calls in and admits to leaving noose at UCSD. According to Vice Chancellor Gary Matthews, “It’s someone who didn’t think that leaving a noose was an issue,” he said.
