Sorority Punished for Showing School Pride
North Dakota sisters sentenced to sensitivity training for banner mentioning former mascot
A University of North Dakota sorority is on double-secret probation after putting up a banner obliquely referring to the school’s retired mascot.
Although UND got rid of its “Fighting Sioux” nickname less than two years ago, Gamma Phi Beta sorority has come under fire for even alluding to the former mascot, which has been deemed offensive. Members of the campus chapter are being condemned by UND’s president for mentioning the controversy over the Fighting Sioux — though without naming the mascot itself — in a banner cheering on the men’s hockey team.
