Default Calvin College Annual Magazine

Calvin College is issuing an apology after publishing and selling a very controversial magazine on campus.Many are calling the college's annual spoof magazine outright racist, leading people to believe the real message is that only white students are welcome at Calvin.The reality for students at Calvin is that there are very few minorities statistically, less than 5 percent, and the students on the school paper wanted to make light of it their annual spoof.The publication is distributed for free on campus and was supposed to be satirical, but one reader, Carolyn Rowles, says it was simply racist.

"If you are not, quote end quote, 'Blonde hair and blue eyes,' than we basically don't want you at this college," said Rowles.

Rowles points to at least half-a-dozen examples including these:

-"Determine how many black people does it take to screw in a light bulb"

- One photo showing all white women, captioned "This is how Calvin is supposed to be"

-Another with only one black woman in the photo, saying black women are allowed in to Calvin "provided they're tall enough and black enough"


Newschannel 3 asked Professos Simona Goi, who acts as advisor to the school paper staff, if she thought the picture and caption showing only white women was supposed to be a joke.

There is no excuse for these spoiled whitebread crackas to be spreadin hate.
