Earlier this year, a virtual event hosted by the School of Religion was subject to an attack.
Guest lectured by Professor Kathryn Lofton of Yale University, the event was called “The Present Life of Blasphemy: Kanye West in American Popular Culture.”
The attack came after the presentation concluded when students were given the chance to ask questions.
“I think people are just bored,” Carly Baldachin, ArtSci ’22, said in an interview with
The Journal. She was one of the students affected by the incident.
“When I first heard that this happened, again, my mind went directly thinking that this was a student,” she said. “I was really scared because I'm very proudly Jewish and people know that—I don't hide it.”
