After Arrests of Black Students at Keene State, Faculty Demand Action
By
Nearly 60 faculty members have signed on to a letter asking Keene State College administration for a public apology and financial restitution to two Black former students who were arrested in March of 2020, New Hampshire Public Radio reported.
The two students, who were engaged, were charged with simple assault, resisting arrest and trespassing.
When one student, Ndeye Badiane, was sick and vomiting, her fiancé, Tyler Clavelle, came to care for her. Badiane said she smoked marijuana in her dorm room, attracting the attention of a hall director. The director came to the room, noticing Clavelle, who was not allowed in the residence hall over spring break because he did not live there. Clavelle looked through trash to find the pipe and hand it over to the hall director and then used the women’s restroom to wash his hands. Clavelle is nonbinary but uses he/him pronouns.
The hall’s director noticed the marijuana smell and called campus security for support.
When she came to Badiane’s room, she realized that Badiane wasn’t alone. Her fiancé, Tyler Clavelle, didn’t have permission to be in the dorm during spring break because he didn’t live there, but Clavelle said he was there to take care of his sick fiancée.
“I’m standing right here in the middle of the room, in the middle of the doorway, with a remote,” he said. “Why would I be hiding? Why would she be lying?”
Things got really tense when Clavelle went to use the women’s restroom to wash his hands, after searching through bags of trash to find the pipe and handing it over the hall director.
