The early 60s were a bad time in our nation and a bad time in Sigma Nu. There was debates raging that came to a head at Grand Chapter.

Keep in mind when reading this article that Tom Johnson is the President of CNN and the article is clearly leaning to favoring the side of the story told by Johnson himself.

The next time you discuss something within the confinds of your Chapter meetings or at Grand Chapter remember that what happens in our meetings is for Sigma Nu ears only and transcrips should only be issued from the Chapter or the Grand Councils as the official stance of the Fraternity.

Clearly Brother Johnson (Mu, University of Georgia) forgot what he pledged to his brothers in Sigma Nu. It is a shame that he brought this up at a time when the Liberal Left needed a boost and bashing Strom Thurman and Trent Lott, over decisions they made when they were young and neive, seemed like the right thing to do for the President of the Liberals strongest Media outlet. He could have not said anything at all and Sigma Nus name would have not been dragged through the dirt.
