Feeling The Managed-Care Pinch, Paul Livingstone

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

Policy May Jeopardize Safety, Kathryn Ritchie Nov 1997

Policy May Jeopardize Safety, Kathryn Ritchie

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

An informed community is a safe community, according to Public Safety Police Lt. Alan Stormann, but recent actions suggest the campus police are only willing to go so far in keeping the community informed. In 1996, seven "forcible rapes" were reported in the university's annual safety and security information report. The definition of forcible rape includes forcible "fondling, non-forcible incest and statutory rape." Of the seven reported "forcible rapes," according to Lt. Stormann, three were actual rapes, one was an attempted rape, two involved offensive touching and the last one involved a man masturbating on a woman. Of the seven …

Mr. Gnu Comic Strip, Travis Dandro

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

A four-panel comic strip drawn by Travis Dandro depicting a bigoted perspective of both people of color and individuals with disabilities.

Long description.

Panel one contains one figure, a highly stylized, anthropomorphized Gnu (or African antelope with along head and beard), presumably the title character of the strip, Mr. Gnu. The character is holding a cereal box in front of him. Lettering over the character's head reads: "Hey kids! I'd like to introduce a new cereal!"

Belanger Tells Story Behind Firstclass Threats, Kathryn Ritchie, Paul Livingstone

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

The penalties levied by the University of Maine against a student accused of issuing a violent threat on FirstClass [the University's email system] have been set, but an investigation by UMaine's Public Safety continues. Casey Belanger, 19, of Caribou, has been ordered by UMaine to serve 30 hours of community service over two semesters. The university has also suspended his FirstClass account and placed him on "probated suspension." The punishment sought by the state, however, is potentially more severe.
