Banner Taken Down UND Sorority

 GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – The Gamma Phi Beta Sorority has issued an apology on behalf of the chapter at the University of North Dakota after an incident involving a banner referencing the school’s retired nickname.
 
Reports that the banner hung outside the sorority house on the UND campus read, “you can take away our mascot but you can’t take away our pride.” It was displayed as the UND men’s hockey team prepares to play a semifinal game Thursday in the NCAA Frozen Four in Philadelphia, and has since been taken down.
 
 UND has retired its “Fighting Sioux” nickname and Indian-head moniker because the NCAA deemed it offensive.
 
 Gamma Phi Beta says in a statement that it will provide sensitivity training for the UND chapter and might impose sanctions.
