A swastika created out of human feces appeared in a gender-neutral bathroom at a residence hall at Rhode Island School of Design last week.

Officials at the highly selective art school just down the street from Brown University notified students that the swastika was, in fact, composed of human waste, according to local NBC affiliate WJAR.

“It’s pretty shocking because I think everybody is wondering, you know, who it is,” Rhode Island School of Design student Cooper Thompson told WJAR.

Students on the RISD campus were unsure about the meaning of the poop swastika.

“You don’t know if it’s somebody who actually has a mental illness or you don’t know if it’s somebody who’s just trying to play a prank or they actually are anti-Semitic,” one student, Afi Goncalves, told the station.

A third student, Rory Hernandez, noted that unauthorized poop art has become a trend at RISD lately.

“There have people using their own fecal matter in a harmful way in the bathrooms, in the showers, all over the bathroom,” Hernandez told WJAR.

“That could be somebody’s safe space,” Hernandez told the station. “So I don’t think that’s right in any bathroom, especially a transgender bathroom.”

The Rhode Island School of Design administration released a statement concerning the poop swastika.

“This level of disrespect and vitriol is completely unacceptable and RISD Public Safety is investigating it as both an act of vandalism and potentially a crime of hate,” RISD spokeswoman Jaime Marland said in an email obtained by the Providence Journal. “We are deeply committed to providing a safe and supportive campus environment for our students and do not tolerate discrimination of any kind.”
