If it weren't so sad...

From today's Daily Orange:

An alleged blackface incident took place over the weekend, but those involved say it could all be a misunderstanding.
Just after midnight on Saturday morning, the Department of Public Safety received a report that a student was wandering around Watson Residence Hall with his face painted a dark color, according to a Public Safety report.
...
The student told officers that the face paint was camouflage - not blackface - and that he was actually on his way to rob a house, [Marlene] Hall [director of Public Safety] said.
