Clearly, the chant is inappropriate.
((Sigh)). Sometimes, it would be much easier if Zeta were a social club, a group of "buddies" where everyone thought alike, acted alike, dressed alike. Zeta is not such an organization. We are a Sorority dedicated to service composed of women from all ethnicities, economic backgrounds, political and religious convictions.
Sometimes, women in Zeta forget that this organization is not about US, but it is about upholding the Principles and Missions given to us by our Five Pearls. It is THEIR organization, continued into perpetuity by US, its Members. You are right shannieglass, no one is perfect. People make mistakes. Within THIS organization, my Sorors are honor-bound to accept correction by her Sorors. Therefore, the key to watch is not whether a Zeta woman make mistakes, but how her Sorors assist her in correcting them.

Finerwomanhood
No matter what organization it is, greek or otherwise, there will always be members who don't exemplify the principles the org was founded upon. They slip through the cracks, and that's just life. All 4 NPHC sororities are represented on my campus, and I can't see ANY of them saying anything like this. I think it's important to take things like this with a grain of salt and realize it's not necessarily a reflection on the org as a whole. Having said that, of course I think it's classless and inappropriate.
