In May 2004, a flyer for the music department's annual spring cook-out, traditionally called Kechley Krazy Kookout (because it is traditionally held at the house Music Professor David Kechley), highlighted the initials KKK. This reminded many people of the initials of the Klu Klux Klan and was, therefore, offensive and insensitive. Some [http://www.williamsrecord.com/wr/?view=article§ion=news&id=5919 argued] that reaction to the flyer was overblown.
<blockquote>
:The flyer printed last year to advertise the music department’s “Krazy department's "Krazy Kechley Kookout†Kookout" Villegas said, produced the kind of uncontrolled dialogue that is detrimental to progress. “So "So many things happened in that day and a half that blew the poster out of proportion,†" she said.
:Esa Seegulam ’06'06, co-chair of the Muslim Student Union and member of the Committee on Diversity and Community, had a similar impression of the flyer incident. “I "I feel like students often fall into the trap of creating a lot of hysteria,†" he said. “I "I feel like we’ve we've fallen into that trap before where we really miss the issue.†"
