It's irrelevant-- the outside world doesn't give a damn whether this group was a "real" Greek Lettered Organization in the sense that "legitimate" Greek societies designate. And the outside world is keeping up with the war on Terror, missing teens in Aruba, nonfat lattes at Starbucks, their own lives and primetime TV. They're not going to hone in on the small details of whether a fraternity hazing death was committed by a "national" group on campus by the grace of God and the university administration... they just see "fraternity" "hazing." The perception still comes back to haunt all of us.
"They're" not supposed to do anything-- but the university, the community, the bars, the police, the national groups and the local students and their parents need to take accountability and set a measurable probation (which they are doing) to turn the students around, and crack down on the absurd norms that have developed at this campus (IE: sending 2 people to the hospital each week due to alcohol poisoning).
