Break out your dictionary and look up the words "maturity" and "civility". Set a higher standard for yourself. Be a little more creative. You don't have to use gutter language to make a point. KU is known for a recognizable, original cheer. I'd rather not be known for the other one.

I'm not going to defend the classiness of the chant. However, it seems people forget what it was to be a kid. Kids never toe or cross the line, ever, right?
Also, this isn't racist, so that comparison doesn't work.
Since when have college students ever been mature? I'm usually on your side (Why can't they be?) but that's just not the reality.
Your argument is basically the equivalent of "have fun sober" to college frat guys.
