What makes this any different than the huge response we've had over the years of people wearing blackface to parties?

As a person of Indian heritage (Cherokees don't use the "Native American" label constantly) I don't feel particularly offended.

But I'll bet some do.
I don't think 'being offensive' is something anyone should ever be punished by a government entity for.

Those 10 students or whatever should feel free to picket the Gamma Phi Beta house or whatever it is they want to do, but using the school to discipline them for 'offensive' conduct is beyond the pale and possibly unconstitutional.
