    I have been waiting for press to get out about this. I was so frustrated when this happened just over a week ago, because it, to me, not only targeted out GSA, but also one of our diversity achievement center coordinators, who asside from being a fierce advocate for all students on campus, but also just a honest, good, decent person.

    I had one of the flyers on my desk for nearly a week so that we could talk about it at the GSA.

    For reference, the flyers used offical school logos and icons, and had the words "Jizzfest 2010!" in big letters, and a caption of "It's Cumtastic". It also had the contact information for one of our diversity coordinators, which is what truly peeved me off.

    If you are interested in more information:

    I finally threw the flyer away a few days ago, since the campus was already discussing the issue, and I just did not want to linger too much on the hatefilled additude it professed.

    I found it to be very cowardly. They basically put them up on the boards, and on tables around campus when people were not looking, then ran off. So far, no one has come forward, which I doubt they would have anyways, but this has got the campus riled up.
