Members of the YCampaign, a student group at Haverford College, plastered the campus with posters questioning why racism is present on campus in anticipation of their open salon about the existence of racism. Meanwhile, Haverford's sister school Bryn Mawr College was caught up in its own race-related controversy. Four students put up party invitations that featured stereotyped characterizations of African Americans, igniting criticism and controversy (as similar incidents have at other schools this year). Several organizations and administrative departments have offered statements on the issue; the Bi-College News, the joint student paper of Haverford and Bryn Mawr, published these statements.
