A student said she was racially profiled while eating in a college dorm. An investigation found no evidence of bias. But the incident will not fade away.

"We used to joke, don't let a rich student report you, because if you do, you're gone,' said Mark Patenaude, a janitor."
"This is the racist person," [the student] wrote of [the cafeteria worker], adding that [the janitor] too was guilty. (He in fact worked an early shift that day and had already gone home at the time of the incident.)"
"Rahsaan Hall, racial justice director for the A.C.L.U. of Massachusetts and [the student's] lawyer, cautioned against drawing too much from the investigative report, as subconscious bias is difficult to prove. Nor was he particularly sympathetic to the accused workers."
Wow.
