A verdict or even a settlement could cost millions of dollars. It isn't worth it to Alfred no matter "how many millions of dollars worth of future donations this has cost them" from greek alumni as ktsnake wrote. It seems to have become a matter of life and death.

I'll have to agree with Cream. If the lawsuits cost more than what the greek alumni donate, the school has to look out for their best interest. It does seem a bit odd that they didn't disband the problem fraternities first and then look at other drastic measures.
