I'm not sure I agree, simply because of the kind of accident it was. If the man had been walking across the street and hit by a car, maybe the Dean wouldn't have commented.
It's kind of like "Dog bites man," isn't a story but, "Man bites dog," is. One car hitting another (with no injuries) is not news, but a car hitting a house (again with no injuries) is.
Not arguing that it's right, but the uniqueness (although this happens more often than we might think -- falls at houses, that is) makes it stand out.
In any event, due to that, I think the coverage would probably have happened whether this particular incident was at a fraternity house or not.
