I'm not sure if that was supposed to be humor, or a sincere attempt at a cover story, but I Googled "sorority rush ninja", "Alabama COB ninja" and "sorority COB ninja" and found no references to recipients of snap bids/COBs (at Alabama or anywhere else) being called ninjas.
And I know this is the action of one individual (now ex-)member, but way to make your chapter, your school, your state and your fraternity all look bad in one SnapChat.
EDIT TO ADD: 33girl, just to clarify (and for anyone who didn't click through to the al.com article and scoll through the comments to know what I'm talking about in case it's not the same thing as 33girl...LOL), you're referring this this comment, right?:

When sororities do not issue enough bids to fill all of the freshman spots they issue what are called "snap bids", which are after-rush bids to fill the available spots in the freshman class. Chi Omega and several other sororities call the members who receive these bids "Ninjas". The accused girl here was trying to comment on the fact that they did not need to issue any snap-bids because they had enough freshman in their 2014 class, so she sent a message saying "No new Ninjas this year". However, her phone autocorrected to a racial slur (ending in -as, rather than -ers), an unfortunate occurrence particularly in the current climate there at UA. Case-in-point, why would she say "no new ______" if they indeed have 2? I feel sorry for this girl.
