What, besides the "hey, we're severing our ties with Delta Zeta" letter did DePauw do to "defame" and create an "intentional campaign"????
|
It was what and how it was said in that letter that has many GLOs concerned. Simply put that a GLO can be kicked off campus for conducting "their" (the GLO's) internal business when it may not have been in violation of any university policy.

Also - what "contractual obligation" does a university have to any GLO?
|
I don't rightly know. But I'm sure there is something legal between the university and GLOs. My guess is that it might be something as simple as allowing the chapter to govern itself as long as the chapter does not break any university, city, state or federal laws etc.

Is this because they won't be able to celebrate their blessed 100th?
|
No. It might have been a long time ago, but it isn't now. I'm sure the ladies of Delta Zeta know they most likely won't have a celebration. Even in victory. This is more about Delta Zeta having the right to govern and make their own policy regarding membership. And clearing their name.
(Please note that I am not advocating for Delta Zeta or necessarily supporting any of their positions. Simply presenting what appears to be their case.)

All of this came to light because the ousted girls spoke up about it. Is DZ gonna sue them too?
|
Not yet.

I'm really interested what kind of crap they are feeding the 5 girls who decided to stay. They probably created a media toolkit since this will be in the spotlight again.

I hope Delta Zeta HQ is smart enough to provide Delta Chapter with guidance and support on how to respond to the media.

And according to the USA Today article that DZ linked to, membership had been declining for the last DECADE. Why on EARTH do they want to be somewhere that no one wants to join???????? (besides the whole 100th celebration of course!)

At this point, it doesn't seem to be about wanting a a chapter at DePauw but about what the university said about Delta Zeta in their statements and about how Delta Zeta conducts their internal business.
