Stanford University is investigating a possible hate crime after swastikas and an image of Adolf Hitler were drawn on a whiteboard outside a Jewish student’s dorm room, the third such incident in the last two weeks.
The president of Stanford University issued an apology this week for school policies that intentionally limited Jewish student admissions in the 1950s.the Stanford Daily, the university’s student newspaper,“It’s really making this living situation feel pretty hostile to me,” said the student, who declined to be identified, fearing harassment. “It’s very unsettling thinking that I was in my room sleeping and someone was outside of my door doing this.
Students who live in the dormitory, Florence Moore Hall, will meet Tuesday to discuss the impact on the community and what steps could be taken to address the fallout. Officials do not believe this incident is related to two reported hate crimes on Feb. 28 and March 3, in which swastikas and hateful language were scratched into a metal panel and on the wall of two men’s bathrooms.
Both of those incidents were classified as hate crimes under California’s penal code, though no suspect was identified, Stanford officials said. “Vandalizing property particularly with words intended to threaten and intimidate individuals is contrary to Stanford’s values,” the university said in a statement. “It is absolutely unacceptable in our community.”
