Sigh...here we go again.
We can't blame this on alcohol consumption. I have been six sheets to the wind...and I STILL know not to call anyone the N or the F word!
I was reading in the Advocate about homophobia and Greek Life. Saying this as a Greek, fraternities and sororities are often a hotbed of homophobia (please don't act like you didn't know). What the article mentioned, that I didn't know, was that there are a few national fraternities that have added to their bylaws that they do not discriminate against homosexuals, but a national sorority has yet to do the same thing.
Sensitivity training--and sponsoring an event with a LGBTQ organization on campus--is probably the best thing that they can do to improve their image. I just know that my campus, for better or for worse, would not tolerate this behavior.
