事件传出后，有网友表示要给校长及国家科学基金会（NSF）写信。也有人试图将此报告给为亚裔争取平权的非政府组织80-20促进会（80-20 Initiative），为华裔讨个说法。 0 G V4 Y* _+ J2 f$ f6 L) O) z- F4 Z! f
不过化学与生化学院院长Robert Continetti电邮表示，「（这些言辞）显然不合适」（definitely not appropriate），「也不能代表整个化学学院的观点」（definitely not a reflection of the UCSD Chemistry Department），并表示将展开调查。3 q8 m( g k" w0 h) c* A

“Please accept my personal and sincere apologies for the insensitive language recently found on my laboratory’s website. I find the language offensive and I am embarrassed by the poor judgment exhibited in posting the offending language. Although I was unaware of the existence of this page until it was brought to my attention, I accept full responsibility. I have taken steps to remove the offending language and will arrange for appropriate training for my research group and me relative to the UCSD Principles of Community.”
