(EDITED BY AUTHOR: 11/4/2003 - 10:29 a.m.) With Auburn's low % of African-American students(granted, Tuskeegee impacts AU), the Fraternity Halloween party 2 years ago, and the fact that Auburn is in Alabama, AU has to be very aggressive regarding employees' use of derogatory comments and terms.
People can piss and moan about this and wrap themselves in a free speech wrapper and talk about, "what's wrong with using that word." Well, that's a bunch of crap.
Auburn has an image to protect and better yet, build. Also, this image is not limited to people in the state of Alabama.
