GammaPhiBeta, spoken like a true person that knows nothing about the REAL WSU. Get real. The Greeks ARE WSU. It is an awesome school and most of the people we went to school with that are our lifelong friends from the Greek system are multimillionaires and very loyal Cougs, so I guess it can't be all bad. It started with the former President that was bound and determined to shut down the Greek system at WSU (he is of the religious persuasion that does not allow alcohol use or at least purports not to, but we all know how that goes!) It is totally ridiculous. We did way worse things than any of the houses that are getting shut down left and right are doing. Our school President at the time came to our parties. The "losers" in the dorms and apartments also did way more drugs than the Greeks. Is that better? My bet is that your brother would not have been accepted by any house, anyhow. Also, my brother was president of his frat and he was accepted into the top Dental School in the nation. My husband was also president of his fraternity and is highly successful. Okay, Gamma Phi Beta...why on earth are you on this board 24/7? No job? Nothing else to do? Are you really even in a sorority or have you just watched too much Legally Blond and Animal House? Finally, it does not take a lot to get shut down at WSU. Quite the opposite. The Greeks are the target because they are the visible group. The same thing goes on at UW. My daughter is a recent grad and sorority member. She said the Greeks were always targeted when they had absolutely nothing to do with any of the problems. They were discriminated against.

This problem is not so much a Greek thing anymore. It is a police matter. IMO, the police and the University have dropped the ball. If it was my kid that was curb stomped and has his jaw wired shut for months and cannot go back to school, you can bet I would have law enforcement and the Whitman county prosecuting attorney all over Delta Chi. I don't know why they were not shut down right away? They are not being forthcoming in who was involved. The Theta Chi's are. They have a policy that any involvement at all will result in immediate expulsion from the fraternity. I wonder if Delta Chi can say the same thing? Again, property damage and verbal taunting are not the same as beating the heck out of a kid, especially in the cowardly manner in which it was done. The D-Chi's went back to their house and rounded up several more guys and then went back to Pappa John's and beat the TWO Theta Chi's brutally. Cowards.
