GW Investigates Anti-Muslim Flyers
posted 2:26 pm Tue October 09, 2007 - Washington
George Washington University officials are investigating several hundred flyers found around campus on Monday attacking the Muslim community. The flyers, posted on kiosks and mailboxes, were filled with anti-muslims slogans and advertised an event sponsored by the GW Young America's Foundation.
The leaders of the conservative organization said they had no involvement.
"This was not us," said Sergio Gor, president of YAF, in a statement to the George Washington University independent student newspaper The Hatchet. "I want to find out who it is. These people ought to be brought to (Student Judicial Services) or something."
Tim Miller, executive director of the Student Activities Center, tells the GW Hatchet that Student Judicial Services, the University Police Department, GW Housing, and SAC are all investigating the matter.
GW President Stephen Knapp issued this statement saying, "There is no place for expressions of hatred on our campus. We will not tolerate the dissemination of flyers or other documents that vilify any religious ethnic or racial group."

People who live in glass houses should not throw stones. Get over it and get to what you are supposed to be doing on the campus at GW - study.
