The UMass Lowell Connector has published an end-of-the-year satirical issue, typically dubbed the Disconnector, for a number of years. But this year, some are saying the student-run newspaper took the joke too far. Dean of Student Affairs Larry Siegel said that this year “almost the entire university community, and predominantly our student leaders, believe that it crossed that line.”
