To: MIT-Talk@MIT.EDU
Can someone please forward the original invitation to the list? Not
being an EC resident, the first I heard of it was President Vest's
condemnation, and I still haven't seen the original message so I can
judge for myself whether it is (as I suspect) just a bad-taste slam on
certain cultural stereotypes, or a "derogatory references to poor
people and its overt use of racial epithet and negative stereotyping"
