Update 3:25 p.m., April 2

The Daily Collegian received comment from Penn State spokeswoman Lisa Powers regarding the flyers put up in the HUB.

"Hate has no place at Penn State," Powers said via email.

She also said the group directly mentioned by the flyers is not a recognized student organization, and the university will continue to look into the matter.

On April 2, multiple flyers were on display in the HUB-Robeson Center, claiming that a group of Penn state students is Nazis.

The flyers included photos of the students and their names, as well as their social media handles and posts allegedly made by the students. They are currently being taken down.

One of the many flyers stated that “this document would not exist if it were not true,” and continued with “this document exposes these people for what they are: modern day Nazis.”

The flyers alleged a student group called American Student Front is alt-right, fascist, anti-Semitic and white nationalist, and claimed the group has partaken in book burnings, taken photos with “Charlottesville style tiki torches,” and made an “It’s okay to be white” banner. The flyers also alleged members of the group run a Nazi podcast.

Another flyer included photos from the organization’s social media accounts. The Daily Collegian attempted to reach out to ASF via social media, but all accounts have been deleted.

Other flyers specifically identified nine students, including their full names, pictures and their social media accounts. One additional student was labeled as "unknown."

At this time, The Daily Collegian chose not to publish the names or photos of these students because it is unclear who put up the flyers and if the allegations made against the students are true.

Senior director of student engagement programs Barry Bram has asked students to take down any additional posters that may be around, and let people within the university know about the posters.

There is no place for hate at Penn State. Thank you for bringing these abhorrent posters to our attention. We are removing them and we are looking into this. — Penn State (@penn_state) April 2, 2019

Bram said as of now, all he knows is that the flyers were put in bathrooms in the HUB and one was found in the Willard Building. He has turned them in to police and informed them of what he knows.

“I assume they’ll take over any investigation that needs to happen at this point,” Bram said.

He is not aware if the university plans to take any action at this time, and also does not know who is responsible for passing out the flyers.

The Daily Collegian will update this story as more information becomes available.
