Now a representative from the DePaul Conservative Alliance (DCA) wants to set the record straight and clear its name from the negative inferences DePaul has made against it, "The DePaul Conservative Alliance had absolutely no involvement whatsoever in the reprehensible acts of vandalism that occurred at DePaul University. The DCA finds the statements made by student Corey Holmes and DePaul spokesperson Denise Mattson highly disingenuous and categorically untrue. The DCA did not incite the events that were an affront to DePaul's values and it’s ridiculous and insulting to imply we are to blame. Based on facts we have been informed of which the University and police have yet to reveal, we believe that the graffiti was actually a slur against us accusing us of racism. On February 15, President Holtschneider attacked the DCA in an email to the entire DePaul community which implied that our group’s satirical protest ‘bake sale’ was motivated by racist attitudes. If anyone should take responsibility for inciting this racist attack on the DCA it is the Vicentian Priest President of DePaul who insults the students he should be defending. We will reply in detail next week to the Feb. 15 letter and the administration’s duplicity," said Joe Blewitt, Nicholas G. Hahn III and Michael O’Shea of the DePaul Conservative Alliance.
I don't know who Corey Holmes is.
