Student journalist: Shoplifting at Gibson’s Bakery was part of Oberlin College’s “Culture of Theft”
"[W]e uncovered a sad truth: That the majority of shoplifting in Oberlin is carried out by students.... [because] students just felt like it" -- Puts in context testimony that the college wanted a special procedure for student shoplifters and feared backing the bakery would "trigger" a negative...

82.5% of shoplifting in Oberlin is done by students, and the racial breakdown of arrests is in proportion to the population.
On a more humorous but still annoying note:
Not serving deep fried chicken sounds like the school was trying to serve healthier food.The campus atmosphere turned Oberlin College “social justice” activism into self-parody. The black student union protested that the Africana House dining hall did not regularly serve fried chicken (seriously). Other students protested dining hall “cultural appropriation” of Asian food, noting as to the dining-hall version of General Tso’s Chicken, “nstead of deep-fried chicken with ginger-garlic soy sauce, the chicken was steamed with a substitute sauce.” Once again, the administration sought to placate the activists, with the Director of Dining Services confessing that “we recently fell short in the execution of several dishes in a manner that was culturally insensitive.”
And General Tso Chicken is a Chinese American take on Hunan cooking. But only a silly SJW would call it cultural appropriation instead of just saying "this dish sucks because it's steamed chicken breast instead of deep fried thigh, and the sauce is lousy"
