Actually the sorority in question pledged two african-american girls. I would say the racist snapchat was the doings of one girl.

Your posting it on here is nothing but hateful.

I think it shows that despite the Sororities trying to put things off on interference from alumnae last year that the problem is still there and it's pretty major. I was willing to buy that crusty old white people were the issue given how powerful the Greek system is at Bama and how important it is to your campus but I was probably being rather naive about that since Greek/non-Greek stuff just doesn't matter much at UT and certainly not at the level it does to UA, OM, AU etc. Sure what was said is embarrassing in the sense that these are current Bama students and therefore associated with your school but bringing it up isn't hateful (whoever wrote that text was hateful) and you can't fix problems you're in denial of or don't know exist.

If nothing else this shows that current students not just anonymous old alums in the UA Greek system still have some soul searching and work to do. Acknowledging that is the first step to making genuine progress. You can't have open dialogue or change without it.
