SAN DIEGO -- Police at UC San Diego police are investigating a KKK-style hood that was placed on a statue outside the main campus library.

The incident is the third targeting black students at UC San Diego in as many weeks.

A university statement says the hood was found about 11 p.m. Monday.

Students reported to libraries staff that someone had put a Ku Klux Klan-like hood on the statue of Dr. Seuss [Theodore Geisel] on the forum level of the Geisel Library.

Campus police promptly removed the hood.

The object appeared to be a white pillowcase that had been crudely fashioned into a hood with a hand-drawn symbol.

A rose had also been inserted into the statue's fingers.

The university says an aggressive investigation is under way, including fingerprint and DNA analysis, and vowed to punish the culprits to the fullest extent of the law.

Last week, a noose was found hanging from a bookcase of the Geisel Library.

The next morning, a female student admitted to hanging the noose and has since apologized.

There is no word on the girl's motive or whether other students were involved.

This is the latest in a series of racially charged incidents at the campus including a Presidents' Day party that was intended to mock Black History Month.

Called the "Compton Cookout," attendees were urged to dress and act in a manner that school officials say perpetuated racist stereotypes.

An invitation on Facebook urged female participants to dress as "ghetto chicks" and said chicken, watermelon and malt liquor would be served at the party.

Goddamit. Why'd they have to do it during Dr. Seuss's birthday? Now people are just asking for trouble. They think this shit is funny and don't take it seriously. And I'm willing to bet it's those fuckers from the Koala.
