GRAND FORKS, ND (KFGO AM) -- UND's president says a banner on a sorority house lacked sensitivity over American Indian issues.

The banner at Gamma Phi Beta read: "you can take away our mascot but you can't take away our pride."

The school had asked students to post pictures of banners to celebrate the UND men's hockey team making it to the "Frozen Four" in the NCAA tournament.

It was put up during time out week, which was sponsored by the UND Indian Studies Association to highlight American Indian culture.

The banner has been taken down.
