The Wit and Wisdom of Cornellians

The right of Big Red Bears to babble shall not be infringed

Slope Day: Are You Kidding?

Again, the Babbling Bear is Verklempt. Slope Day? Really? Words matter. If we can change the name of the Plantations to the Cornell Botanic Gardens, why not change S—- Day to Garden Day?

Check out these online dictionary definitions of the S-word:

Slang: Extremely Disparaging and Offensive. a contemptuous term used to refer to a person of East Asian origin, especially a Vietnamese or other South Asian.

A derogatory term/slur used for the purpose of describing a Vietnamese/Asian person. Describing the slope of their eyes.

The derogatory slang meaning “Oriental person” is attested from 1948, American English, from the shape of the eyes.

End the anti-Asian microaggressions at Cornell!!!!

Cornell–Do the LEFT thing and change the name of S—- Day to Garden Day!
