Earlier this year, Gawker published an email sent by a member of the University of Maryland's Delta Gamma chapter to her sorority.

Michigan State Professor Insults Muslim Student Group
In 2006, a mechanical engineering professor at Michigan State University sent an email to the school's Muslim Student's Association in response to a planned on-campus protest.
