After reading and re-reading this article (and being almost completely thrown off), my guess is that this story is controversial because a Caucasian female student (who also happens to be a member of an HBGLO) was given an award for being the "Blackest" (read: most ghetto) Chi Omega and she's not even a member of the org who gave the award. She just happened to cater the event. I agree with jitterbug13 that the writer must repeat Journalism 101.
Poor chile.  This is really bad.....

The article clearly states that there are no Black members of Chi Omega at Kent State.
The article also states that Candice Poole, the Black student, member of Zeta Phi Beta, is a student manager of dining/banquet services who was at the banquet working and heard the award.
A member of Chi Omega at Kent State who is NOT BLACK received the award as Blackest member award which could be translated to the Most Ghetto Member of the Kent State chapter of Chi Omega.
And it only took me one read to get this.
