A Purdue University Northwest chancellor who drew backlash after he seemingly mocked Asian languages in an impromptu impression onstage will serve out the remainder of his term, the school says.
April 25, 2023, 8:35 PM UTCA Purdue University Northwest chancellor, who drew backlash for a racist display at the college’s winter commencement will serve out the remainder of his term, the school said.
“This decision by a privileged few to protect one of their own further alienates members of our minority communities. I hope it is clear to everyone that the board’s decision in no way reflects the wishes of the majority of faculty on the Purdue campuses,” Roach, whose executive committee unanimously demanded Keon step down after the incident, wrote in the statement.
During the December ceremony, Keon recited made-up words onstage, in what he called an “Asian version” of a previous speech.
