Fliers titled "why white women shouldn't date black men" were distributed across Southern Methodist University campus in Texas last week.
Reasons given were "he's much more likely to abuse you", "he's much more likely to have STDs" and "your kids probably won't be smart", according to The Daily Campus student newspaper. The fliers appear to have been published by Alt Right, a white supremacist outfit.
The leaflets feature a number of smiling white blonde women next to straight faced black men before giving examples of failed relationships saying they are "horrific and sadly predictable".
Southern Methodist University released a statement on Tuesday this week condemning the "racist and hateful message in these fliers". The "concerned students" have met with SMU's Office of Multicultural Student Affairs, the statement added.
"These messages have no place at SMU and are in opposition to SMU's values and commitment to an environment free from discrimination."
SMU's president Gerald Turner added in his own statement on Wednesday: "In challenging times, the country should be able to look to those educated in one of our nation's finest universities to provide insightful analysis of the nation's events that would guide us to to go forward individually with mutual respect, even when mutual agreement may not be immediately possible.
"The entire community must recommit to discouraging and eliminating such unacceptable behaviour."
A surge in racially charged incidents has swept across the US in the wake of Donald Trump's election as president.
Although the flier does not mention Trump the reference to the Alt-Right will raise concerns after the Republican named Stephen Bannon as his chief strategist in the White House.
