Karith on Howard Stern

The passing of Don Imus last month has left many who worked alongside the radio host with mixed emotions following his death. For Karith Foster, who called into the Stern Show on Tuesday, her time on “Imus in the Morning” was brief but not without incident. She was hired soon after Imus made on-air, racially disparaging comments about the Rutgers women’s basketball team in 2007. As a black woman herself, Karith was brought on in an effort to diversify Imus’s show.

Karith was intelligent, compassionate, well-organized, funny, and comfortable interacting with audience…. After the presentation was over students stayed about 45 minutes to 1 hour to interact with Karith to ask questions (our students never do that, they are generally racing for the door after such discussions).”

From a Resident Life perspective it ties into everything we do. We are always looking for ways to incorporate diversity and multiculturalism, especially when talking about tough issues like Stereotypes. -Merrimack College, Sally Bertolino, Assistant Director of Residence Life
