Tristan Rettke, the East Tennessee State University student who last week disrupted a Black Lives Matter rally wearing a gorilla mask and taunting black students with a banana, is no longer a student at the university. The incident angered many on the campus, and Rettke faces criminal charges of civil rights intimidation. In an update to the campus posted to Facebook, the university said the student in the incident "is no longer enrolled" and "will not be enrolling in the future."
