Swastika found on professor's door at New York university Columbia

[oberliner]

NEW YORK: Police say a professor at Columbia University's Teachers College found a swastika painted on her office door, and the police department's hate crime unit is investigating.

Police were called to Teachers College on Wednesday morning after Professor Elizabeth Midlarsky, who is Jewish, discovered the swastika.

This is the second incident in less than a month involving a possible hate crime at Teachers College, Columbia University's graduate school of education.

A noose was found Oct. 9 on the office door of a black professor, roiling the Ivy League campus.

No arrests have been made in either incident.

7. I think it was Ahmadinejad related as well.

I find it quite ironic that a noose and then a swastika were found after the Ahmadinejad visit.

6. Doubt this was a hate crime

Or a race crime.

It's a neanderthal reaction to percieved threatening behaviour, ie having a job.

Haters paint swaztikas.

9. Is it a crime? Check. Vandalism's illegal.

Is it bigotry? Gee whiz, I don't know, it's only a swastika.
