I agree, but in this particular case my concern is that the CU demands don't seem to have been all that unreasonable- depending on whether the final deferred rush demand was for spring or sophomore year, the former being palatable.
However, the IFC now in control had imposed a ban on alcohol at all fraternity parties for the remainder of a semester (spring I think it was- as Delt Alum said, much of this is past news.)
And that is what worries me. The core argument by the fraternities is that the University was imposing unfair and sweeping sanctions.
Yet the IFC felt compelled to do the same once they took control. So I am not so sure that CU can be the sole culprit for the split.
This, along with the record of deaths and hospitalizations, is what suggests to me the Greeks there have their work cut out for them.
