[my apologies everyone, I'll clean this up when I get his PM]

If they kicked complete idiots off of campuses, most schools would have to close.

That's freaking pathetic
 

I know that being a member of Alpha Phi Omega they have strict standards of how they pledge people, but to know that Northwestern a prestige school would allow frats and sorrorities to haze people. I can understand little things like harmless jokes, but when they get you to binge drink until you pass out is crossing the line. It was past generations of fraternity and sorrority members that passed on their ignorant and harmful tactics to get freshman to pledge. It's bad that schools don't shut down the chapters and report them to the organizations national headquarters. What makes no sense is that you should be able to pledge without the dangerous pranks and binge drinking. I was given honorary status with the frat/sorrority organization I was with to progress into full membership with all the rights and privileges.

I scanned the article... did a kid die or did the entire pledge class just pussy out and rat out the older brothers?

Door #2.

Well, it is Monday.
Where is that statement?

No, you weren't. (But then again, if you are referring to APO as a "frat/sorrority" that's another problem right there.)

Sorry, we've decided over the weekend to get it to print later. We all know that the earlier that people can see our side to it, the better, but we now have a good reason not to rush this thing.

It will hopefully be out on Thursday (won't jump the gun and say "will" this time), after we've ensured that our response will not get edited and censored.

Could you please explain your last line???

nwu43, stop talking. You don't owe us anything. This is a matter for your national organization to handle -- it's bigger than you. Trust me on this.

(And I still owe you a reply to a PM from March - sorry!)

The best post in this thread.

Thanks Senusret I.

I've been trying to be as careful as I could with what I say, but you're right (I was afraid not saying anything would make us look even worse).

Personally having ALL of your pledges drop out makes you look pretty bad to me. I admit I am a little biased after hearing about the death of one of your pledges here in Austin 3 years ago.

No, not saying anything means that the GC Court of Opinion is unimportant. ;)
