How about the teaching moment someone is being given...explaining how SOME view the chant as inappropriate and the people chanting as insensative?
Anytime you are at a University you have to follow conduct codes that are not at play in other aspects of society. I had a friend back in college that almost got expelled because of a dispute that he had with a girl he once dated. All the actions took place off campus and he still had to go against a judicial board to keep going to a public school. When you attend a University whose mission is to educate, you have no right to attend those games or attend that school. If you violate general codes of conduct, the school has a right to take action. Even in a pro arena you cannot do or say whatever you like.

Peace
