For the record, Sensuret posted this in an obvious attempt to get at me.
Yes, three members of the sorority made an ill-advised costume choice - although I find it ironic that it is at the University of North Dakota - home of the Fighting Sioux (!).
But that is hardly reason to believe that the entire membership is therefore insensitive. The sorority's response is here

I'm sure Sensuret meant to post it, but just forgot.
If the sorority just shrugged their shoulders and said, "Eh", then Sensuret would have a point. But I am proud of the way it was handled, and the good to come out of it is that many more people are now aware of the need for cultural sensitivity in terms of social party themes and costuming. It's a process - and there will be missteps on the way. But the important thing is to strive to improve, to encourage and educate our members to be culturally aware.
