Two things are bothering me:

1) The first is the language in the article is demonstrative of the lingering feelings of "them" vs "us". "The blacks"?? Geez, just something about that sounds forced, almost as if they were trying their damnedest to not say the "N" word.

2) I highly doubt any NPC would go into a chapter and re-org based on racial discrimination for two reasons. One, the women can just argue that they didn't accept the PNM due to other reasons. Each sorority has a set of criteria a woman must meet in order to be considered for membership, they can just argue she didn't meet one of them. The second reason is it's not a "pulling of a charter" level disciplinary infraction, just plain ol' stupidity. They would probably suggest a sensitivity/diversity training class before even thinking about disciplinary action of any sort...
