If you search through the Bowdoin Orient website, there was an issue with a hate crime, but by the sounds of the article, it affected the school so deeply that a large amount of the school is devoting itself to bridging divides the incident caused.</p>

Later efforts: [“I</a> Am Bowdoin continues fight against bias in the community”](<a href=“http://orient.bowdoin.edu/orient/article.php?date=2011-05-06§ion=1&id=1]"I”>http://orient.bowdoin.edu/orient/article.php?date=2011-05-06§ion=1&id=1)</p>

As an outsider, I’m just assuming that the incident was very isolated, but the reaction showed how committed the community is to tolerance and togetherness.</p>
