A professor who claimed she was targeted in a hate crime that stirred student protests at the Claremont colleges is suspected of staging the vandalism herself, police said Wednesday.

Kerri F. Dunn's car was vandalized and covered with racist, anti-Semitic and sexist epithets on March 9, leading faculty to cancel classes and students to stage rallies the following day.

What themes in pornography lead to perceptions of the degradation of women?
Gloria Cowan, Kerri F. Dunn. The Journal of Sex Research Feb 1, 1994 v31 n1 p11
(11)

We assessed ratings of nine themes in commercial pornography to test feminist theory about what is degrading to women in pornography. Ninety-four female and 89 male college student volunteers rated nine brief excerpts of sexually explicit material. Seven of the nine themes depicted two types of inequalities--actiue subordination and status inequality; one theme depicted female indiscriminate availability; and one theme depicted equal sex. Participants viewed the themes either with or without accompanying definitions. Consistent with feminist theory, both men and women who viewed the excerpts rated active subordination more degrading than status inequalities and both types of inequalities more degrading than sexually explicit material with equality, with one qualification. Women rated all inequalities and availability more degrading than equal sex, whereas men rated active subordination themes and status inequalities more degrading than nonreciprocated sex, female availability, and equal sex. In general, video clips without the definitions were rated as degrading as those presented with definitions, with some variations in ratings of status inequality themes. Suggestions for future research to assess degrading aspects of pornography are provided.

Social influence strategies among Japanese and American college women. Kerri F. Dunn, Gloria Cowan.
Psychology of Women Quarterly March 1993 v17 n1 p39(14)

Social influence strategies of 40 Japanese and 41 American college women were compared. With the use of a free-response format, respondents were asked to describe how they get their way with their mother, father, male teacher/boss, female teacher/boss, male friends, and female friends. Contrary to expectations, content analysis indicated that Japanese women reported using strong and neutral strategies more frequently and weak strategies less frequently than American women. American women used manipulation (especially sexual manipulation) more frequently and reasoning less frequently than Japanese women. Analyses by target of influence indicated that these differences were not found when the target was a female friend but were demonstrated across most of the other targets.

"...the story gets very little play."

See the link at 19. This b*tch's stunt wound up shutting down these campuses for 5 days, while minority students cowered in fear, distrustful of white students.

She didn't seem to mind that she'd done this sort of thing to other people. But since she's a social psychologist, she would know the name given to people like her: Sociopath.

This is exactly why Joe McCarthy was right and still is right.

She shouldn't have Kerri Dunn like that.

But with a name like Kerri. . . .

I remember reading about this story when it happened, and I recall thinking it was probably faked.

Now, if a hate crime is worse than a regular crime, shouldn't faking a hate crime be punished more severely than faking a regular crime?

LOL! I guess all the other commies in the media figured that if she was sharp enough to earn (?) a JD and PhD, she'd be smart enough to keep her story straight. Guess they figured wrong.

You know, she committed a hate crime against Christians. Truly a devil's advocate.

Good Evening All-

"Kerri F. Dunn doesn't sound particularly Jewish..."

From the picture shown in Bonaparte's post, she doesn't exactly look Jewish, either. The news accounts mention she is converting to Judaism from Catholicism. It looks like Ms. Dunn is about as Irish as cabbage and corned beef on St. Patrick's Day...which makes this wacky story even more ironic! LOL!

Absolutely!

And it's long past timed, that we are vocal about ALL of this, as well as about the fact that McCarthy really wasn't hard enough on stinking Commies, pinkos, and fellow travelers.

"She was not taken into police custody."

Why not? Any other person that had evidence of these crimes against them that this woman had would be arrested and their faces would be all over the news.

I live in Orange County. We have two 12 or 13 year old girls sitting in jail right now. Why? One of them didn't want to get in trouble for being late, so they conspired to accuse someone of attacking them. The police were called, and they did a lineup. The girls had decided before seeing the men in the lineup that they would both pick #5. #5 was then convicted and spent months in jail.

How far was this woman willing to take her hoax. Was she going to allow an innocent person to go to jail for a crime that never happened?

So once again, why wasn't she taken into police custody?

Wow, she's quite the little workerbee:

Department: Psychology
Phone: (909) 607-8504
Campus Address: Seaman Hall 231

Office Hours

Monday 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Wednesday 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM

PSYC 030-04 MW - 1:15 PM - 2:30 PM BrC 1

So that's what - a total of 9 hours a week on duty? She'd have plenty of time to molest herself, it seems.
