College swimmers suspended after #Nword scratched on to student’s body

At least two students at Gettysburg College in Pennsylvania have been suspended from the swim team after a report that a racial slur was scratched onto a student’s body, officials said.

A family member of the victim contacted the Gettysburgian last week to give more details.

They said the student had the
N-word cut into their chest by someone they “trusted”.

The victim’s family say they consider the incident a hate crime.

They also said the victim was the only person of color at the scene
