1. Do you think the school took appropriate action in this case? Why or Why not?

Very much, yes. Racism is an ugly, evil thing that shouldn't be tolerated by anyone. Threatening someone for their skin color or where they've come from is absolutely unacceptable.

2. Do you think the free speech principals outlined in the Constitution should extend to this type of behavior? Why or Why not?

No! Everyone is equal in my eyes and this is rude, awful behavior. If it is "accepted" then I'll use my freedom of speech to protest against such such tolerance of something so horrible.

3. If you saw this type of action happening, would you step in and try to stop it? Why or Why not?

Definitely. I have friends who have been victims of racism- even in the smallest of ways. It's ugly and not right. There is no reason anyone should ever be forced to put up with the slandering of their race.

4. Would you record it the behaviors and attempt to provide that information to authorities? Why or Why not?

I'd record what was going on only for use of proof.

5. Should the actions of a couple of students caused the entire fraternal organization to be closed? Why or Why not?

No, if not everyone was participating in this behavior then it should be open for the people who still are there.
