“The University is concerned and disturbed to hear that someone may have left a symbol often used by white supremacist groups on our campus,” the statement reads. “The Northwestern Police Department is actively looking into the matter. While we value freedom of expression, we also must stand together to protect our values of diversity and inclusion. Posting a symbol of hate and intolerance on our campus violates our values and the core commitments of the University. Any act of hate, whether intentional or careless, will not be tolerated.”
