Staff Editorial: Statement on racist emails & incidents at UMass

Dear Mount Holyoke community,

In the second week of September, Black student organizations at the University of Massachusetts Amherst started receiving racist emails. This has since developed into an ongoing onslaught of bigotry and racist language. On Sept. 17, an email was sent to Black student organizations at UMass by a group called the UMass Coalition for a Better Society.
