McDaniel College Probes ‘CMT Versus BET’ Event
Baltimore CBS Local ^ | 8 March 14 | Mike Hellgren

WESTMINSTER, Md. (WJZ) — Controversy on campus. A fraternity and sorority at McDaniel College are under fire after allegations of ethnic stereotyping during a party.

Mike Hellgren explains why the party’s theme is upsetting so many.

It has generated heated debate both on and off campus and could result in anything from a warning for the fraternity and sorority involved to the loss of their charters.

A fraternity and sorority at McDaniel College are under investigation after holding a party in January with the theme “Country Music Television versus Black Entertainment Television.”

In a statement, a McDaniel vice president told WJZ: “McDaniel supports inclusiveness. Any event that promotes negatives stereotypes or disrespect of others is reprehensible.”

WJZ found the CMT/BET theme is a popular one, with various fraternities and sororities posting pictures on sites like Pinterest and Facebook.

Yes, reprehensible. Tawdry, vile and vicious. Yet it is okay for black thugs of all strata (from lil street thugee to University Thugee) to post their latest videos of
puttin’ whitey in his place in “Knockout/Beatdown” games.

Here's a free Saturday morning clue for McDaniel:

Both respect and stereotypes are earned.

Neither springs from nothing.

Re: Any event that promotes negatives stereotypes

So do they ban the 11 o’clock news here too?

Would it still be bad if the fraternity and sorority were Alpha Phi Alpha and Alpha Kappa Alpha?

Well if conservatives still show respect for anti-white drivel and the people who spew it, this kind of crap article will continue.

Actually, I disagree. Have you ever watched or listened to Dave Chapelle, Whoopi Goldberg, or Jamie Foxx et al do their impressions of a white man? Actually paid to denigrate white men, in fact. Likewise, their Hispanic counterparts like George Lopez who are equally (worse even) demeaning to white people.

The fact is that our entire political, social and entertainment systems feel it is okay to target white people (legally, socially, and violently in some cases) and we just have to sit there and say “yeah, we’re guilty” and have to laugh about it lest we appear ‘racist’.

This duplicity is what drives people like these college students, and I don’t blame them one damn bit, let alone call them stupid.

Conservatives are the only ones that have a sense of humor.

Liberals only laugh when something bad happens to their opposition. Sad sad people.

small private libtard school in central MD. i went there in 1969 (when it was western maryland college). was a lousy student but smart enough to get away with it. entered as a 4F and anti-war, graduated 5 years later. best 2 things i got out of the 5 years were my frau of 38 years and a commission as a 2LT in armor. took my german degree and was actually stationed in germany for 3.5 years. now i wouldn't pay for a child to go there.
