Student Walkout Disrupts Teach-In on Race at UC-San Diego
Hundreds of students walked out of a teach-in on race Wednesday at the University of California at San Diego, where two recent incidents have fueled racial tensions, the Los Angeles Times reports. The protesters, who say they don't believe administrators will take significant steps to improve race relations on the campus, held their own peaceful rally across the street. The teach-in was in response to an off-campus party that mocked Black History Month and a racial slur by a campus satire group on a student television show.
