The E-Mail
Chang sent a copy of the message to the APALSA list and several campus publications, including the Crimson, adding a small, signed preface.
The e-mail message does not contain any indication that Perng authored it.
The message describes the Temple as "an institution that treats a large group of Asian Pacific Americans with suspicion and distrust, and which attempts in not so subtle ways to make us feel unwelcome." It then asks for support in a boycott.
Other law school students responded immediately in a torrent of forwarded e-mails.
Arlene Delgado, a representative to the Law Student Council (LSC), consulted with Council President Jay Munir about the message and then replied to Perng, affirming the Council's support of a boycott.
"In the least, we figured a letter on behalf of the LSC members to the Temple Bar ownership, declaring our lack of tolerance for such behavior and our intent to boycott Temple Bar from now on, would be a good place to start," Delgado wrote Perng.
