The University of South Carolina has suspended a student over a photo that showed a racial slur written in a campus study room, President Harris Pastides said Friday.

The student, who was not named, also faces university code of conduct investigations, Pastides said. A school spokesman would not say if the student faces expulsion.

The photo shows a white female student writing on a whiteboard with the slur about African-Americans.

The racial slur was listed as among the reasons why USC’s wireless Internet connections operate poorly, along with “overpopulated campus” and “incompetent professors.” The student is writing the word “parking” in the photo.

USC did not say if the female student in the photo was the person suspended by the school. While USC has not identified the woman in the photo, her name was shared on social media posts that included many angry comments about the slur and the student.
