Frankly it pisses me off that someone, no matter what organization, would find that funny. It makes me feel even worse to know that it happened to be Beta's.
Your post is a prime example of the kind of reception I or any other Beta's will now recieve in and around the Auburn area, and from any students in the future who are currently at Auburn when they are to find out I'm a Beta. 20 years down the line I could run into someone who will associate Beta with rasicism because of this incident. It has been a great illustration on how my personal actions can reflect poorly, not only on myself but also, my chapter, the general fraternity, alumni and our history.
I agree w/ ZZ and Miami that the actions aren't representative of Beta, and I feel that the closing of the Auburn chapter was the appropriate measure.
