Several students at the law school of North Carolina Central University, a historically black institution, are calling for a white classmate, Morgan Kendall, to be expelled after Kendall posted racist messages to her Facebook page, WRAL reported.
Kendall used a racial slur in a Facebook comment and wrote “I wish I could take credit” for the pipe bombs sent to the Obamas, the Clintons and several others in October. The concerned students, who said they feared for their safety, met with Elaine O’Neal, dean of the law school, and Fred Hammett, campus police chief. Kendall will not be allowed at school this week, but will be able to return the following Monday.
Kendall did not respond to WRAL's request for comment.
