St. Louis Post- Dispatch: "Lake Saint Louis man, 19, charged with making online threat against Mizzou"

A University of Missouri student in Rolla was charged here Wednesday with making a terroristic threat on social media against the Columbia campus, which has been roiled by controversy this week.

The suspect, Hunter M. Park, 19, of Lake Saint Louis, is a computer science student at the Missouri University School of Science and Technology. He was arrested at his dorm by university police about 1:50 a.m. and held in lieu of bail.

Various threats have added to the unease at Columbia, where pressure from black students who alleged racism there led to the resignation of the system president and ouster of the campus president.

Major Brian Weimer, of the campus police at Mizzou, said the threat was made Tuesday on Yik Yak, an anonymous location-based online app. Weimer did not specify the threat, and records with details were not available because courts were closed Wednesday for Veterans Day.

A threat posted to Yik Yak by someone had said, "I'm going to stand my ground tomorrow and shoot every black person I see." Another said, "Some of you are alright. Don't go to campus tomorrow."

After a night of threats of shootings and rumored Ku Klux Klan presence on campus, Columbia streets normally teeming with students had slowed down to a trickle Wednesday. Several restaurants, bars and coffee shops were shuttered, with handwritten signs proclaiming safety concerns, or simply "Closed." […]

IF that story is true(?) in addition to the name-calling and other possible forms of racial intimidation, then Black students have had to endure a somewhat hostile learning environment ….and on a publicly-funded University campus no less.

Hopefully now that it's all been brought out into the national spotlight it will lead to the beginning of some meaningful dialogue between all sides and some positive steps forward.

Time will certainly tell.

Oh boy Random White Guy, the problem is not only about somebody calling these students a N but about the president ignoring black students. If this wasn't about race but a problem with a dorm room or whatever and the university ignored students, he would still be in the wrong. Well it's the same thing. I read he came from the private business world and didn't know anything about running a university. So he had to go. As for students being called a N again maybe now the university can help with that.
