It didn't make sense that an active would post something so incredibly stupid and cruel.

And it also didn't make sense considering that Chi O did pledge AA girls.

And the auto-correct explanation didn't pass the sniff test.

But this is plausible. And the explanation matches what is apparent regarding the mismatched size of the "g"s in the offensive word.

I guess one question is -- where is the original shot posted by the active on the active's snapchat?

As someone who works with photoshop on a regular (almost daily) basis, it would be very easy to distort those letters in photoshop to provide "proof". This "new" photoshop evidence is smells about as good as the autocorrect story.

For the purposes of that specific article, yes, but that wouldn't explain why all the other screenshots posted about on the internet (independent of photoshop issue) also have the same mismatched "g"s.

Here's another screenshot, for instance, on a forum discussion that has nothing to do with the photoshop issue (scroll to 3rd post and click to enlarge):

Oddly the article regarding photoshop at the original link above has disappeared. Here is the cached original article:

Because one altered screen shot is the one being leaked to the media for damage control and is being distributed. We have no idea where these subsequent screen shots came from. We have no idea if they have been altered from a program with sketchy security issues to begin with. As someone who works with teenage girls, social media and photoshop in my line of work, you would be hard pressed to convince me otherwise.

You are assuming that an altered screenshot was leaked to the media for damage control?

I would hope that Chi O nationals and the university have the original post/photo from snapchat, as well as information from snapchat regarding the account in question. Otherwise, they would seemingly be operating on little more than we are at this point.

And I can't imagine how either entity accomplished confirming and gathering this evidence from communication with snapchat, not to mention conducting the questioning and remainder of the investigation in one day. A Sunday.

If they didn't gather this evidence, and didn't investigate thoroughly before ruining a reputation, they may have another kind of problem.
