And also, don't say he "was" a Greek in college or "was" in a large national fraternity. He is still in that fraternity (unless he was expelled when his chapter's charter was pulled). Perhaps he needs to be reminded of that, and reminded that as an alumnus, his fraternity experience can extend far beyond his chapter.

Otherwise, co-sign 33girl.
Ohhh you're very right. I think it is so harsh that he constantly uses words like "dead", "gone", and "over". It does bother me. I'm sorry to use the term myself. Most of the Greeks where I'm from are local. So if something happens to end their chapter at our school, the chapter is literally dead, it's the lingo we use there.
He was not expelled. The incident did not involve him, and he was shocked by it. I think once he gets over the bitterness he'll reunite and get involved with some of his brothers somehow.
