Also, this is not just one member using a racial epithet - it's a group, in a public setting, and to compound the already morally reprehensible actions, they directly involve the fraternity. In the case of the Bama Chi Omega who tweeted, removing only the offending member is the proper response. She was solely responsible for her personal tweet. In this case, I think the only tenable action is removing the charter. The chapter would not be able to function going forward even if for some reason HQ didn't pull it. It also stands as a stark warning to all GLO chapters that racism has no place in Greek life.
