I disagree. Greek Life isn't bigger than race. Ever.**
Putting the "Greek Life bandaid" on this will keep these parties happening if not at ASU then at other campuses. People will just decrease posting photos on social media.

The idiots at ASU have "Greek Life problems". But if these parties were primarily about "Greek Life problems" then they could have thought of millions of other dumbass things to do in the name of "Greek Life problems."

**If this story was about a fraternity that was overtly sexist and misogynist towards women people would be mostly discussing the larger dynamic of sexism and misogyny. Sure, that fraternity may have "Greek Life problems" but people would be wondering why in the hell these fraternity members chose to express their "Greek Life problems" in this particular manner. It would be indicative of a larger culture of sexism and misogyny. It is unfortunate that people can grasp this when discussing other social dynamics except race and ethnicity.
