Looks like they had a gay time. What's the big deal?

I appreciate that VMI isn't a military academy, but it's fair to presume they're aiming to lead men in combat, and/or assume leadership positions in society, not looking to become dentists (no disrespect to dentists).

Mr Blackface and the two Mr. Gays have not only compromised their ability to lead, but compromised any discrimination suits future employers might be hit with over their actions. The various Mr. Nazis are just stupid.

Yes, I know they're just college kids, but my impression is that VMI is still one of those schools that expects ethical standards in conduct.

What could possibly be unethical about party costumes?

The Honor Code is the daily application of the principles of ethics, honesty, and personal integrity by all cadets to the problems with which they are confronted.

Too much to expect any discipline these days I guess. Every one of these bozos should be kicked out.
