Updated 11:20 a.m. Wednesday with SMU President Gerald Turner's letter.

The president of Southern Methodist University issued a letter Wednesday condemning fliers titled "Why white women shouldn't date black men" that were found at several places on the Dallas campus several days prior.

The Daily Campus student newspaper reports that the racist fliers were found at the Armstrong Residential Commons dorms, and KXAS-TV (NBC5) reports that they were discovered at the Dedman Life Sciences Building.

The university said the fliers were found Sunday night.

In the letter SMU President Gerald Turner issued Wednesday in light of the fliers, he mentioned other isolated campus incidents that he described as uncivil, racist and sexist. Turner did not give specifics on the incidents, but said they show that there's a small number of individuals who don't want to live in a united, respectful community.

"Anyone committed to living a life of denigrating others in some misguided effort to elevate themselves should find another place to live," Turner wrote in his letter. "...I commend student leaders for organizing to eliminate such unacceptable behavior among their fellow students on our campus."

A group of about 50 students and faculty meet Wednesday night to discuss the events and search for opportunities to change the culture on campus.

"It's time for us to stop sitting around," said senior Brianna Hogg, "and really change our outside community as well as the SMU community."

They said it was crucial that students report any incidents of hateful behavior.

"At the end of the day you can't do anything without a record," said senior Taylor Nickens.

It's still unclear who posted the fliers, which feature photos of black men and blond, white women with phrases including "He's much more likely to abuse you," "He's much more likely to have STDs" and "Your kids probably won't be smart."

The university issued a statement Tuesday afternoon that said it condemns the racist and hateful message in the fliers.

"These messages have no place at SMU and are in opposition to SMU's values and commitment to an environment free from discrimination," the statement said.

The end of the flier says "Take the Red Pill and meet the Alt-Right at RadixJournal.com. Brought to you by Unamusement Park."

A screenshot of unamusementpark.com shows the racist fliers the author suggests people distribute.

The Southern Poverty Law Center describes the Alt-Right as those with the core belief "that 'white identity' is under attack by multicultural forces using 'political correctness' and 'social justice' to undermine white people and 'their' civilization."

Alt-Right founder Richard Spencer, a white nationalist who attended St. Mark's School in North Dallas, is editor of Radix Journal, which is promoted on the flier.

Similar printouts were found at the University of Oklahoma on Monday and at the University of Michigan in late September, according to OU Daily, OU's student newspaper.

Meanwhile, other college leaders have reminded students and staff to treat others with respect.

Richard Benson, president of UT-Dallas, sent a note to the whole campus Wednesday.

"Our university strives to foster a campus culture in which all voices are heard and valued, differing ideas are treated thoughtfully, and every individual is afforded dignity," he wrote.

The school has reported no problems or incidents on campus since the election.

Concerned SMU students have met with the school's Office of Multicultural Student Affairs and plan to meet again, according to the university's statement.

The Student Senate executive committee said in an email Tuesday that the SMU community should come together in respect.

"We are all united; we are all Mustangs," the committee said. "No matter your beliefs or political preferences, we are all human and every student on this campus deserves the best experience during their time here. While we must accept and respect the results of our recent election, we cannot allow injustices to happen on our campus."

University officials suggest that anyone who sees such fliers or has information call SMU Police at 214-768-3333 or the Office of Institutional Access and Equity at 214-768-3601.
