Both Michigan State and Duke on Wednesday condemned a sign displayed by a Blue Devils fan Tuesday night that referenced the water crisis in Flint, Michigan.
"The sign was disgusting and a slam to those who are suffering in our state," Michigan State said in a statement sent to ESPN. "We understand the actions of an individual student do not reflect the beliefs of Duke University or its Athletic Department."
Multiple state officials in Michigan are facing charges after an investigation discovered elevated levels of lead and corrosion in the water supply of the predominately black city of Flint.
