After a racist incident surfaced during Wednesday night’s basketball games, IUP’s President published an update detailing how the university plans on moving forward.
In a video released Friday afternoon on IUP’s website, Dr. Michael Driscoll reassured students and community members that he, along with university officials, continue to gather input from students on the incident, and he also encouraged students to familiarize themselves with resources put in place to deal with these types of incidents, such as the Office of Social Equity and Title IX.
Driscoll also detailed his next steps in the investigation.
The incident in question came between both basketball games Wednesday night after a student allegedly posted a racist Snapchat during the performance of “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” which has become known as the black national anthem.
