MILTON, Mass. — Curry College President announced the termination of a Curry employee in relation to a series of hate incidents that rocked the campus during the Spring semester.
Quigley said in the email, that due to the confidentiality concerns, the “person of interest” in the crimes will not be named, but has been removed from campus.
Over a series of months, hate crimes against Jewish, LBGTQ+, and the Black population occurred in various places on campus, including residence halls, campus athletic facilities and bathrooms.
According to the school newspaper, a campus-wide meeting was held where thousands attended an online conference to voice their concerns about the crimes, and contemplate what steps could be taken to end them.
“The College recognizes and regrets the impact these bias acts have had on our students, families, faculty, and staff throughout the spring semester and hope this will allow us to continue moving forward,” said President Quigley. “It is our hope that this will bring some closure to the series of events we all suffered through. Thank you to our community members for their collective response in support of one another.”
The college worked with the FBI, Milton police, and former Boston police commissioner, Ed Davis, to investigate who was behind the crimes.
