this is what boren wrote. while there is no indication that the chant was part of the formal teaching of the national organization it does appear that the chant was widely known and informally shared amongst members on the leadership cruise. does sae have a bigger problem on its hands here when you hear how this chant came out and that it was widely circulated on a leadership cruise? >> absolutely. this puts the honus back on the national organization which said they are going to conduct a national review of all chapters. a number of other members from other chapters and other states have come forward, i found some in texas tech, ut austin we've seen some from louisiana where they've come forward and said we heard that chant too. this -- i think this answers part of what a lot of people suspected, that this didn't come out of nowhere and it was something not just isolated to the university of oklahoma. >> no further suspensions or expulsions over this at ou does that surprise you? >> i don't think it surprises

you know we believe that president boren is taking the right actions. and investigating and doing the right thing. more than just suspensions and expelling these students. the people responsible for it. the people on the bus. this is how we feel that that action should take place. students should be expelled that had something to do with that. >> on monday, hundreds of students marched silently and president boren declared real sooners are not racist. >>> and more fallout from the shooting of a biracial teenager. students protested the killing of 19-year-old tony robinson by walk out of classes. we have cnn's ryan young with the latest. >> reporter: john and christine, we saw the frustrations rolling over here in madison, wisconsin as thousands of people walked toward the state capital to show displeasure of the shooting death of the teen. if you look behind me, you see the growing memorial for tony robinson. this memorial has been growing throughout the afternoon. they are raising signs to show support for this young man. they tell us they plan to have

i want to read the statement from president david boren. it says, i have emphasized that there is zero tolerance for this kind of threatening racist behavior at the university of oklahoma. i hope that the entire nation will join us in having zero tolerance of such racism when it raises its ugly head in other situations across our country. he goes on to say, we will continue our investigation of all students engaged in the signing of this -- singing of this chant. once their identities have been confirmed, they will be subject to appropriate disciplinary action. we have reached out for comment to that group "unheard" that posted this video. so far, we haven't heard back from them. but this just in, president david boren of the university of oklahoma expelling two students who played a leadership role in that racist video chant surfacing over the weekend. >> can i ask you this, two students -- we clearly saw one student who seemed to be taking a leadership role in that chant standing up. there were two angles, very clearly you could see his f

that president boren knew it was an issue on his campus. the young lady who was on before this segment shared that there was information communicated to administration around what was going on, and really can't speak to why they decided not to act previously, but i do think that he established a healthy and a productive precedent for moving forward and how university administrators ought to handle these issues. >> thank you very much. >> thanks, john. >> isil fighters are on the run in tikrit. there has been a week of heavy fighting in that city be but reported advances against isil have been reversed in the past. jane arraf reports from george northern iraq. >> it has taken days to get to this point the iraqi military and shia militias it is working with has cleared towns and villages along the way. they've taken them back and then lost some of them again. it's an indication that this is really an isil stronghold. tikrit was one of the first cities that isil seized after it took mosul last june. it's a sunni city predominantly in a majorit

boren, you said a small number of people. there have people who have come on cnn and other broadcasts and saying these are just a small number of people who were caught. this is pervasive throughout the greek system not only in oklahoma but across the country and that many of the leaders on those campuses have turned a blind eye to it. they just happened to be caught. >> well i think that it's it is happening all across our country. i agree with you. it's mott just the greek system. it's not just colleges and universities. it's ferguson missouri. it's all sorts of elements of our society are involved. and i think the only way you stop it the only way you put it a stop to it is to have zero tolerance when it is found out. i think clearly some of our students wanted this exposed. they wanted this video out there. and i've asked them to let me know, please when there are other things like this that happened. >> i want to bring in chelsey davis, a head of a group of students advocating for change. we heard the president of your u

>> i think that the president david boren dealt with the problem as best as he knew how. as far as from his political standpoint in him trying to be fair to the other students. i think he handled the best way he knew how, i also think that -- i think that a lot of people didn't realize it was this way. because we've brought to his attention before i know the o.u.n. has been a big pushing force in this. i know they have done a lot of things prior to this day. i don't i had finally grasped what was going on until this video came to the light. >> when you say grasped what was going on. are you speaking about this particular fraternity? >> i would definitely not say that it was just this particular fraternity. president boren touched on the fact that it's a smaller group of people representing a larger group. he doesn't feel as the larger group, the group as a whole should be in trouble for that. i think it was just a smaller group that got caught. i don't think it's necessarily a smaller group of people feel this way. i think that the smaller group of people is who was caugh

the school's president, david boren, said two members of sigma alpha epsilon fraternity have now been expelled. the students learned the song during the fraternity's national leadership cruise four years ago. boren said he took action so everyone can move on. >> our purpose here is not to brand people for life. our purpose is not to forgive. our purpose is to learn lessons and be held accountable and then move forward with our lives. >> woodruff: boren said that after investigating over 160 people, it became evident that the song was "part of the institutional culture of the chapter". the s.a.e. chapter at the university of oklahoma has since been disbanded. republicans pushed a balanced- budget plan through the senate after a marathon, overnight session. it passed nearly along party lines and follows one passed by the house earlier this week. the proposed budget shrinks federal deficits by more than $5 trillion over the next decade mostly by cutting health care and other benefits. the senate's top democrat, harry reid, announced he won't be seeking re-election next year. his party lo

>> i want to first applaud president boren for his proactive approach to this. it took his leadership to pull that university together. i'm telling you after talking with some of my colleagues there it was not a good feeling initially when this was unfolding. but it goes back to value development. we have to get back in the homes and work on the value. somewhere in that socialization stage they're paking up on what's wrong and what's not right. so at the end of the day they have some bad data that's in their heads about people and how to view them. >> and jason, again, we're talking about 200,000 members and alumni with this frat. this is a lot of people and this clearly has implications nationally. this is serious. and to see the passion out of this president of this college, at least that to me is refreshing. >> well it's refreshing and it's responsible. and i just want to be candid about the racial elements of this. this is internal policing in the white community. on racism. and that's a good thing. it's a good thing that there was somebody white on that bus

david boren says sigma alpha epsilon members learned the chant four years ago at an event sponsored by the national sae and later ingrained into the chapter's pledging process. he says along with disbanding the chapter, more than two dozen students will face community service and sensitivity training. boren says racism cannot be tolerated. >> we tear greatest melting pot in the world, an example to the rest of the world. when someone uses an inappropriate word in our presence or tells an inappropriate story in our presence we need to stand up and say don't say that in front of me. >> starting this fall all o.u. students will have to complete diversity and sensitivity training. >>> all eyes will be on indiana next weekend for the final four but the ncaa says it will be watching what happens off the courts to see if a new law in that state impacts fans. the state recently enacted a law that allows businesses the right to refuse service to gay and lesbian customers based on religious freedom. the ncaa's president says they could consider moving future events out of indianapolis if there a

i think president boren set a fantastic example of what a university president should do when confronted with situations like that. and so if more university presidents followed his lead i think that you know a lot of these problems can be ameliorated and also it sends a message to students at other campuses if presidents follow president boren's lead. >> what is your advice to people in other areas that are facing these situations, what should they do to a, establish justice but at the same time keep the community moving towards healing? >> one of the things i'd do reverend al is i always consult with my pastor. but as a student on a college campus in the heat of the moment, i think you ought to go to those administrators of that campus, get your student policy handbook, look and see if there's gray areas in there or black and white areas that address that misconduct of racism. it's not to be tolerated on any level in any form and what we have to do is make sure that we have policies in place and we have to hold lawmakers and policy makers accountable for not making policies that protec

i commend david boren being out there this morning. i hope the sanctions go above and beyond what has been said. i think the students and all parties involved need to be expelled. it definitely breaks our student conduct. it's the hate speech. and these students shouldn't be allowed to attend the university of oklahoma. >> all right, chelsea davis, thank you so much for joining us. >>> tonight learn what happened the night malcolm x was assassinated 50 years ago. this past weekend was the 50th anniversary of bloody sunday. cnn is taking a broader look at the issue. we get the story from people who there were including malcolm's x own daughter. don't miss it at 9:00 p.m. eastern. >>> to a mother's plea. that is the mother of tony robinson we're talking about. listen. listen. >> and turned around and said it's not okay. we're not going to take that? absolutely. >> her son was shot by a white police officer. he was unarmed. these are pictures of her son. again tony robinson the victim here. social media photographs and photographs show a

it seems to be a critical point that university of oklahoma president david boren missed when he spoke about how to end racism. >> we can stop it if all of us and the institutions and organizations we belong to and all of us as individuals say we have zero tolerance for racism in america. that's not who we are. as an american people. >> listen as an institution, a university is empowered to do more than just call for an unrealistic and unattainable goal of individual tolerance and zero tolerance. and as the head of ou boren is in a position not to just talk about it he can feel free to be about it. he can take get lead on issues like the recruitment and retention of students and faculty of color that may not decrease intolerance but move the needle in a significant increase of racial equity on campus. by respond with meaningful policy to confront inequality and that's going to recognize that these kind of institutional deficiencies are racism. because if we only ever see and hear racism in the words of an individual, then all anyone ever has to do is say "i'm sorry." joining me now, je
