I want to make something clear to everyone here. No one is arguing for the censorship or banning of the Source. This group is simply meant to unite students who agree to no longer read the publication, and as a forum to debate further action.

Let's please try to keep things civil here.

I never intended this group to be about the proper definition of the word 'boycott,' or whether this was an appropriate response to the racism of the Source. I used the word 'boycott' simply to try to tie people together - this was obviously a mistake. Let's concentrate on the issue at hand: how should we as a campus respond to the hate present in the Carol?
