Hate-Crime Hoaxes Unsettle Campuses.
Gose, Ben
Chronicle of Higher Education, v45 n18 pA55-A56 Jan 8 1999
In recent months, police on a number of college and university campuses have investigated hate crimes that made headlines, only to discover that the crimes had been made up. While some feel the hoaxes are by individual students during difficult times in their lives, others feel leftists may be faking the crimes to influence the campus movement toward multiculturalism.
