Reported to the courts after the broadcast of racist videos published by students of the Grenoble management school

Less than ten students are implicated, an internal investigation is underway.

The management of Grenoble École de Management made a report to the public prosecutor after the broadcast of racist and Islamophobic videos on social networks, France Bleu Isère reported on Tuesday December 10. The videos, published in late November and early December, show students mocking the Muslim community and “blackface,” a racist practice that involves painting one's face black.

These videos were taken as part of the campaign for the BDE (student office), outside the confines of the school's various establishments. They concern two lists of BDEs which have since been banned, several students, less than ten, are implicated. An internal investigation is underway within the school and a listening cell has been set up since the beginning of the week.

According to information collected by France Bleu Isère, the management of the management school has decided to strengthen security on these three campuses (two in Grenoble, one in Paris), in conjunction with the police. The school has 7,000 students this year, a third of whom are international students.

A disciplinary council will be held next week to determine the final sanctions against the students involved.
