STILLWATER, Okla. -- Officials with Oklahoma State University released a statement on Thursday after white supremacy fliers were found at the university.

Officials said the fliers a few fliers were found in a bathroom and on a bulletin board in the student union. Students took them down when they were found.

The university issued the following statement:

The fliers being placed in the Student Union and other locations are in direct violation of OSU policy and have been removed when discovered or reported. In addition to being placed in areas where fliers or posters are not allowed, these particular fliers are concerning because of their intent to cause division on the OSU campus. OSU works hard to fight intolerance and discrimination of any person or group. The university welcomes and values all students.
 
Incidents or concerns should be reported to community mentors, advisors, work supervisors or to building personnel. Although in most cases these acts would not fall under any state criminal  statute, concerns regarding a poster or flier may also be reported to OSU Police through iReport on OSU’s Orange Shield safety app. The iReport should contain a photo of the flier along with the locations and date and time it was discovered.
