A fraternity at the University of Georgia has been suspended after video allegedly showing members whipping someone and referring to them picking cotton surfaced on social media.
Georgia's chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon was suspended by the national chapter and the video was condemned by the university. The frat also announced it had expelled four members who were involved in the video on Saturday.
"Tau Kappa Epsilon is disgusted, appalled and angered by the remarks shown in the video," the national chapter said in a statement. "TKE does not condone or support any actions by its members that would be defined as racist, discriminatory, and/or offensive.
"Since 1899, our fraternity has taken much pride in the diversity and uniqueness of our membership," the statement continued. "Tau Kappa Epsilon has never had an exclusionary clause in our membership. Our founders believed, as we do today, in the personal worth and character of the individual, not his wealth, rank, or honor."

Welcome to D.U. 
Hope the parents are at least really unhappy at their being kicked out and loss of their tuition and other fees. They're in midquarter after the withdrawal deadline.
