Organizations shouldn't use diversity/cultural sensitivity training or workshops as a "consequence". These workshops are pointless and "check off the checklist" enough without being officially considered a reprimand. If these GLOs truly care they will discuss these topics as part of chapter development, NM interaction, and it would be discussed informally without needing to be required to discuss (to further debunk the notion that whites don't think about and casually talk about race, ethnicity, and culture--their own and that of other groups).

Hoax or not, this is a lackluster incident not worthy of being called "racist" and not worthy of too much attention. Except as an excuse for pre-existing racial tension so people can claim "we were doing soooooooo well until this happened."
