He did not direct the name at any individual. There were none present. He was videotaped by someone on an upper floor of a nearby dorm.

That last line is the real problem - if he'd just had a tan, he would've been ignored for this same behavior, even if his tan turned out to be Arab, Indian or Polynesian flavored, it doesn't matter as long as it's tan.
