No need to call in the PC police, no need to take offense. But considering that College Board AP tests are supposed to be graded seriously and objectively, disapproval is warranted.

‘Insensitive’ T-shirt gets an F at College Board event

The College Board apologized for a “culturally and racially insensitive” T-shirt and some comments made at its Advanced Placement World History exam grading event last month.

On the front of the shirt are caricatures of Chinese politicians with the words, “Chinese Communist PARTY!!!” On the back is an image of Mao Zedong and text in what critics of the T-shirt call a “chop suey font.”

“It hearkens to this history of racist imagery,” said Hannah Kim, an assistant professor of history at the University of Delaware and one of the AP exam readers, in an interview with USA TODAY Network.

Kim was one of more than 1,000 college professors and high school teachers who gathered in Salt Lake City in mid-June for a week-long event to read and grade AP World History exams. It’s common to have commemorative T-shirts at these grading events, and often these T-shirts are “innocuous,” Kim said.
