The university condemns the white supremacist and antisemitic posters and swastikas that have appeared on the Oxford campus this week. The university has removed them and notified local and federal law enforcement to investigate these crimes.

Miami is committed to cultivating a welcoming and safe environment for all students, faculty, and staff, regardless of race, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, and socioeconomic background. Antisemitism in any form is unacceptable. There is more work to be done to address antisemitism, and all forms of bias and racism, and we will continue to educate our community to promote a culture of inclusion and respect, as we continuously seek changes to ensure that we are true to this mission.

If anyone has information about these incidents, please contact the Miami University Police Department at 513-529-2222, or police@miamioh.edu.
