Two Humboldt State University students were suspended today “from their respective athletic and fraternal campus organizations pending a current student-conduct investigation regarding racist posts that were recently discovered on social media,” according to a Twitter thread released by Humboldt State at 8:15 p.m.

An earlier tweet by HSU stated, “The Dean of Students office has been made aware of posts on social media showing HSU students making racist taunts and mocking the Black community. Basic decency and campus protocols demand a swift investigation, which is already underway.”
