It's just the same as the "SigEps" at Ole Miss (or where ever they were) putting a noose around the black statue. Sure, the chapter itself didn't do it, but the chapter has a social responsibility to squash racism, hate speech, homophobia, etc. and remove that shit from its ranks.
And haven't we
all been given the age-old lesson, "you're always wearing your letters" ????

That doesn't make it any better... Sure,
white people have heard it in supposedly "non-racist" ways (nope), but we blacks get to hear it in racist, degrading ways from the mouths of non-blacks countless times in our lives. SO, until that's done, can't no white people say, write, or think about the n-word.
