Carnegie Mellon University chief apologizes for papal parody

A Carnegie Mellon University coed's semi-nude papal parody in a spring carnival parade was “highly offensive,” university President Jared Cohon said on Wednesday.

“We have procedures for a reason: to protect both the university's interests and those accused of violating our community standards or policies. We will take the time necessary to discharge our responsibility to treat those involved fairly,” Cohon wrote in a campus email.

Before Cohon's statement, Carnegie Mellon's only response was that officials were reviewing the April 18 incident to determine whether community standards or laws were violated.


How boring and humourless of them.

I rather liked the look of it, actually. Good for her. I hope I can find the pics somewhere! :D

Bunch of killjoys.
