We’ll confess: there were two awesome academia stories yesterday, and we only really covered one of them. Call us homebodies if you must. We were kind of partial to the UCLA swastika graffiti story over the links that we kept seeing to some guy at UPenn who wore a suicide bomber costume for National Dress Like A Slut Day. But that’s before we realized that the President of the University posed with him:
What nobody on the right seems to understand is that it wasn’t a terrorist costume – it was a freedom fighter costume! And he was very brave for wearing it, because obviously there’s a ton of official opposition to this stuff on the UPenn campus.
