Black Washburn students 'takeover' building, demand ethnic studies courses

The Black Student Union at Washburn University continues to call on school officials to meet all of their demands.

The group held a “peaceful takeover rally” last semester and wants to see more action from university administrators. The impetus for repeating the demands was a perceived failure to punish a chemistry professor who allegedly wore blackface. Subsequent evidence showed the professor, Holly O’Neill, wore dark-greenish zombie makeup at a Halloween party.
