It's been discussed
On GC before. There was a thread in the Greek Life room about it. I think there were a lot of factual errors in the piece.
It was a column, not a news article, BTW. And Tony's right, facts should be a part of it, but from experience, some student editors are in a very formative stage and sometimes just aren't careful or don't have a clue. Not to excuse that, but just trying to say what happens.
The attitudes aren't surprising, though. I sound like a tired, broken record, but there are still a lot of people who have never had any meaningful contact with AfAms in this world.
