It sounds like the sororities' participation was extremely voluntary. Perhaps they all need to reevaluate their participation if this behavior is so unwelcome? If Sigma Chi wants to punish the chapter for something offensive, fine. A public school can try to do that, but they may find themselves on the losing end of a lawsuit. Actions should have consequences, but there's only so much a pubic institution can do. Considering the students' constitutional right to say something offensive, I'm not sure what there is for the university to investigate. If the school shut down Derby Days, they've already infringed on Sigma Chi's constitutional rights. It's unclear though as to how exactly that took place.

As for the comment in the article regarding this being hazing.. my we have taken the definition of that word into an uncharted level of expansiveness.

And not for nothin', the event, while featuring maybe one offensive display, they did raise $25,000 and 1,000 units of blood for a children's hospital. But of course that's not the real story here.
