Schools were probably very different back then too... in a make-believe world, maybe it would have been OK for the DZ HQ to do this at DePauw 20 years ago, but something like that is no longer acceptable. At least not at DePauw.
I think reorgs/instant recolonizations went over much better 20 years ago, just because Greek life was more popular. People wanted to be Greek a lot more than they do now and they weren't going to really delve into the "why" of what was happening.

The thing is though, the smaller the school, the more quickly what happened is going to get around to all corners. That was true before and now with the internet it's even more so.
