Quinnipiac Theta Chapter Cancels Philanthropy

The Quinnipiac University chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta has cancelled their "Queso for CASA" philanthropy because a student complained that using maracas on an event poster for a Fiesta Themed event was "culturally insenstive" .

Honestly, this is bull shit, and it's ridiculous because the girl complaining grew up in foster care and actually personally benefited from the charity this event was raising money for. That just doesn't sit well with me.

I understand Greeks have had many racist, inappropriate mixers recently. But this was a charity event and she was upset that the posters had maracas on it. Which I still can't understand what is so offensive about maracas?

This whole thing is ridiculous.
