Purdue University’s first Asian American president has taken office, weeks after a chancellor in its greater school system was criticized for what many considered to be a racist display onstage during a ceremony.

“Will he or won’t he rock the boat now? Chiang’s response as president could turn Purdue’s failure to act in 2022 into a new sign of hope in 2023,” the post read. “That would signal a real change in America. The first Asian American president fires the racist chancellor who told a bad Asian joke.” The incident, during which Keon did an apparent impression of Asian languages in front of a crowd of the PNW summer and fall graduates, went viral after Richard Lee, a professor at the University of Minnesota, posted the clip on Twitter. It subsequently raised concerns from many across social media over Keon’s ability to work with students and colleagues of Asian descent without bias.
