UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN: FRATERNITY PARTY CANCELLED AFTER BACKLASH
According to the Michigan Daily, the Delta Sigma Phi ancient Egyptian-themed party has been canceled following backlash from the student body.
Junior Yasmeen Afifi, president of the school’s Egyptian Student Association, wrote, “Not only are these stereotypes extremely offensive as a whole, it is more saddening to see students from the top public university in the United States engaging in these stereotypes. As an actual Egyptian, my roots are more than a costume or a lame party My culture will not be appropriated for your entertainment.”
What's next, no toga parties?
