A noose was found hanging on the campus of Duke University in the early hours of April 1st, the opening day of a month that has already been historically proven to be an interesting month for white extremists. Local authorities removed the noose from the tree at 2:45 A.M., and school officials moved quickly issue a statement of apology. An assembly of approximately 300 people, along with members of the Black Student Alliance of the university, marched to voice their disapproval of the heinous act.

Check out the image of the noose below.

According to a report on msn.com,  a university group named the Duke People of Color Caucus, addressed a similar incident which occurred on the school’s campus on March 22nd. White male supremacist students echoed the chants made by the now infamous white supremacist students of the SAE fraternity at Oklahoma University.

Duke University has already attained somewhat of a white supremacist reputation over the years because of the elitist air that surrounds the school. The noose found on campus does not do much to contribute to the university’s efforts to “rehabilitate” its image, if it even attempted to do so in the first place.
