Western Washington University, where profanity-laced threats aimed at the college’s black students rocked the campus late last year, is forming a task force after several incidents officials have determined to be anti-Semitic.
The Bellingham university is releasing few details about the incidents, which occurred earlier this year, other than to say that there was no specific threat of harm to anyone.
Paul Cocke, the university’s spokesman, said the incidents were investigated by the school’s Equal Opportunity Office.
In a message to WWU faculty, students and staff Monday, President Bruce Shepard wrote that “last quarter the ugliness of anti-Semitism appeared on campus, just as it is occurring across our country.”
