IMO ~~ This is just a case of some media guy making a big deal out of nothing.(Spelling of Name)
I personally know people named Rodrigues & Rodriques. I can tell you all of them are not offended by others interchanging the Q & G. I almost always spell it with a G because the first families I knew spelt it that way. It comes down to how their families adapted the name generations ago (I asked). They know there are two spellings. Not a BIG Deal.
Not every mole hill needs to be made into a Mountain.
The only issue was the inappropriate behavior of the students - which the President swiftly addressed.

Nope.

While it may not be specifically relevant to the article, this is Greek Chat. GLO affiliations are noted often in comments and replies.

Seriously, though, GreekChat refers to the membership, not necessarily every topic. It's not impossible to have a conversation without bringing up Greek facts.
She can talk about whatever she wants to, but I still don't see how that tidbit was relevant.

Thank you -- I thought it might be of interest on a Greek Chat board.

Who can't fact check before making a public statement.
