Here at UT Austin, racism and sexism abound on Yik Yak. Lots of frats and sororities around, so making fun of minorities, calling members of $unpopular_sorority fat, or calling $unpopular-frat gay (naturally the two insults of choice) is a good way to get upvotes.

So it's just a reflection of the userbase. Not remotely shocking.

Blaming the tool is just like blaming the messenger then, isn't it? Could fraternity / sorority culture be the problem?
