Duke Students Hold Rally to Denounce Racism
DURHAM, N.C.
Students, professors and administrators at Duke University held a rally against racism last month after a fraternity sponsored a party that Latino students say demeaned their heritage.
Fraternity members from Sigma Chi designed fliers that looked like expired green cards, on the chapter’s Web site and built the image of a drunk Mexican and built a mock border patrol checkpoint at the dorm’s door for the Sept. 13 party.
The party was held three days before Mexican Independence Day.
