Curry College Vandalism:
The discovery of two more incidents of antisemitic graffiti and racial threats at Curry College in Milton has prompted officials to offer a $10,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest in its investigation into the vandalism, a spokeswoman said.
The hate graffiti, including drawings of swastikas, has roiled the private college since they were first reported last month. The most recent “bias-hate” writings were found on Monday and Tuesday in the laundry room and a bathroom of a residence hall, Liz Matson, a Curry spokeswoman, said in a statement.
In one incident, officials discovered threatening language targeting the school’s Black community, with a specific date of Feb. 22 noted in the threat. In the second incident, officials found racist hate language and a drawn swastika. On Feb. 1, Milton Police Deputy Chief James O’Neil told the Globe that the department was probing five separate incidents of vandalism at Curry. Another incident was reported a week later, on Feb. 8, where a specific date of Feb. 12 was mentioned in a threat against the school’s Black community.
