A Michigan State University department debuted Halloween posters titled, “A Culture is not a Costume" and included a guide called, “Is Your Halloween Costume Racist?”
MSU’s Residence Hospitality and Services department featured the signs, which included a heavily detailed “Cultural Appropriation vs Appreciation” section, as spotted by Campus Reform.
The boards are found throughout many of the university’s dorms. One poster brands the addition of a sombrero to a taco costume as “racist.”

The fun of Halloween costumes is being something you’re not!!!! That’s the whole damned point! Maybe we should all dress up like perpetually offended university humourless ghouls!
sigh...I appear to be format challenged
And this kids are racking up 200k in debt for this?? No wonder they’re producing idiots.
You’re idiots and a costume.
The latest Aggie joke?
It looks like the gays at Texas A&M are sexists. They have the G before the L in GLBT.
Unless that stands for "Gouda, lettuce, bacon, and tomato."
So a beret or a kilt or an alpine hat are not off limits. Apparently not because they are associated with white cultures.Only cultures of people of color are off limits.
Why the inconsistency?
Seems to be telling us that the racists prescribing the rules feel that people of color should be treated differently than
the white culture.
LOL, I hope that was directed at the snowflakes and not me!
LOL...not you!
Hey, I was a janitor in college and I'm now a qualified Engineer. (night shift janitor for the free education)
As another poster said, what I did find exceptionally humorous is that the flowchart WAS made as a form of satire, but was picked up by people who have no sense of irony or satire, who then treated it as a real tool!
Ping for later
