Mizzou Students and Faculty take a stand

I don't necessarily agree with all of the decisions that were made about this racism on campus issue. I can agree with the students sending a letter to the president concerning the issues that are going on. The students wanted the issues to be resolved so they went about it the right way by sending in a letter concerning the issues. I don't agree with them basically making him resign from his job or they weren't going to play. The man probably has a family to support and they just put him out of a job. He can't support his family without a job; I think the players went a little extreme by making him resign. University of Missouri has had the problem with racism for decades. There is self-segregation that goes on on campus too. There is white-housing and black-housing. The white students went over to the black-housing one night and spread cotton balls all over their yards and trees. I think the protests that the students were doing are valid to get recognition for what they are trying to do. The things that have been happening to them are uncalled for and not right at all. There might be other ways to address racism but the most effective is sad to say but it is protesting in public. It gets the most attention and effects the most amount of people possible. Some of the other possible ways to address racism are: put up flyers in the hallways concerning the topic, write letters to higher authority, and trying to just avoid it as much as possible.
