Hate crime perpetrators penalized

Two of the alleged perpetrators responsible for biased-related incidents have been penalized, the College confirms. However, specific information regarding their identities or punishments cannot be disclosed for legal reasons. However, from the College’s procedures, the following can be inferred: the suspects in question were subject to hearing(s) as well as sanction(s) and face either disciplinary probation, relocation on campus, suspension or expulsion. Dean of Students Marianne Calenda expressed her genuine distress over the increasing number of incidents reported. “This is not the Elizabethtown College I know,” she said. She also explained the importance of taking action in the moment, if you witness one of these incidents: “if you see something happening, act. Ask these people why they feel compelled to behave [that way].”
