“This performance was a response to the issues students of color were attempting to address on our campus in 2016. Inside the chapel, I allowed myself to become the sacrificial lamb as 99 eggs were set out for people to take and “egg” me with. My hope was for students, staff and faculty to take their anger and frustration out on me. It should be noted that I did give permission to everyone to participate and that in no way would my students be penalized for egging their professor.”
