Reporting of cases seems to have varying levels of success. King’s itself has instigated unconscious bias training and has collected testimonials in response to complaints in the past. But in its statement on Gopal’s complaint, it denied that race played a part. I know of other colleges that have apologised to students but failed to acknowledge racism was a factor.

(A) King’s gives an attitude different from the past.
(B) racism is denied by the Gopal and other colleges.
(C) students have no confidence in the complaint.
