The 21st-birthday celebration of a University of Maryland student features a cake stacked with bottles of alcohol and inscribed with a racial slur.
The three-layer creation was stacked with bottles of alcohol and the inscription “suck a ni*ga d**k.”
The Baltimore Sun is reporting that the University of Maryland chapter of Delta Gamma is under fire after social media picked up on a recent Instagram of a member celebrating her 21st birthday standing next to a three-layer cake inscribed with “suck a ni*ga d**k.”
The university’s department of fraternity and sorority life tweeted a condemnation of the photo Thursday, saying, “We are aware of an insensitive post from a community member & are addressing it with the chapter as it does not align with our Greek values,” the Sun writes.
And Delta Gamma responded a few hours later on Facebook, saying: “We have become aware of an unacceptable Instagram post by a member of our chapter. The Fraternity volunteers and staff are working with our chapter at the University of Maryland at this time to hold this member accountable.”
