I know DeltAlum doesn't agree with this statement, but I do, and the reason I do is because it has happened on my campus. One of my sisters was raped by an independent and everything was kept hush hush and swept under the rug. Then this year some girl accused one of the Sig Ep brothers of raping her and the police came down to the house, arrested him, and threw him in jail without even hearing his side of the story. There IS a greek bias. People are always looking for some sensational news, and if it deals with a greek organization, it is. Why this independent was not thrown in jail or ANYTHING boggles my mind. Why do that to the brother of the fraternity if you ar not going to do it to every other person accused of being a rapist? Because it's hot news, that's why.
