Syracuse "suspends Theta Tau fraternity after video of ‘extremely racist’ behavior surfaces"

@simba9 I would hope that the military would no longer allow the disgusting racist behavior that you describe went on. It is not okay. It is repulsive. I too am jewish and this whole thing makes me sick to my stomach. It is white nationalism on display. This type of behavior lead to the rise of Hitler who killed 6 million jews. I am not okay with that.

Don Lemon on CNN has segments on what this type of racist behavior feels like to people of color. You may want to listen to it. It is not pretty. This type of behavior leads to police shooting first and asking questions later when dealing with blacks.

SU has a code of conduct.

“Students have the right not to be discriminated against by any agent or organization of Syracuse University for reasons of age, creed, ethnic or national origin, gender, disability, marital status, political or social affiliation, race, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression, or any other protected class as described by law. In their individual roles as members of student organizations, students have the responsibility not to discriminate against others.”

“Syracuse University is dedicated to promoting a safe and healthy campus environment for its students, faculty, staff and visitors. In addition, Syracuse University is committed to promoting an environment that fosters respect for the dignity and rights of all its community members. As such, the University will not tolerate hazing activities by any individuals, groups, teams, or recognized student organizations. For more information regarding Syracuse University’s Statement of Student Rights and Responsibilities call the Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities at 315.443.3728 or the Office of the Senior Vice President and Dean of Student Affairs at 315.443.4357 for more information”

“In addition, Syracuse University defines hazing to include any action that intentionally or recklessly causes or poses a substantial risk of harm to the mental or physical health or safety of one or more persons. Subjecting any person to and/or encouraging any person to commit an act that violates human dignity, the Code of Student Conduct, or the law for the purpose of initiating, promoting, fostering, or confirming any form of affiliation with a group or organization is prohibited. The express or implied consent of participants or victims will not be a defense.”

It is not confusing or mud in the slightest. They intentionally and wantonly violated the code of conduct. These students need to go somewhere else. They are wasting their money on a lawsuit
