Two baristas at a Duke University coffee shop were fired for playing rap music that contained "offensive" lyrics and prompted a school official's complaint. Britni Brown and Kevin Simmons were working at the campus location of Joe Van Gogh when Vice President for Student Affairs Larry Moneta came into the establishment. Simmons, who overheard the exchange between Brown and Moneta, said Moneta was “verbally harassing” his co-worker. As you have read, it is true that Joe Van Gogh is a contractor to Duke. As the owner of the business, I take full responsibility for Joe Van Gogh’s actions.
