University of Virginia President Jim Ryan said in a column published Wednesday that threats against a black student who expressed her views regarding a multicultural center on campus are “reprehensible.” Ryan further said that he saw the student’s comment that there were “too many white people” at the newly renovated Multicultural Student Center “as a statement of concern that one of the few places traditionally ‘for’ students of color would turn into a place dominated by white students.” At the same time, Ryan reiterated that the MSC “will and should remain open to all students.”
