PA Radio: 3 Students Expelled For Racist Remarks

Three Bucknell University students were expelled Monday afternoon after making racist and violent remarks on Bucknell’s student-run radio station, WVBU 90.5 FM in Lewisburg, PA, according to WNEP-TV.

“Administration found out about a radio program that aired the previous Friday in which some students were using reprehensible, inappropriate, inexcusable language,” Bucknell Vice President for Communications Andy Hirsch said.

Authorities say they heard about the foul language from someone at a local prison who was listening to the program. The three students were suspended on Thursday.

“All the individuals involved are going to be held fully accountable for their actions,” Hirsch said.

Hirsch told Newswatch 16 Bucknell University won’t tolerate the behavior.

“It really goes against all the values of our community here at Bucknell,” Hirsch said.
