I figured it would be a good idea to give all of you posting messages about what happened in Alfred a little background on the situation.

I am a sister at Alpha Kappa Omicron a local sorrority at Alfred. The University press release fails to mention that most but not all Greeks had bad grades etc. Our sorroirty for the past 2 years has had the highest Greek GPA which was also higher than the University Women's GPA.

The reason only 10 Greek organizations were listed is because 2 (Sigma and Klan) had their charters suspended earlier this year.

The Greek Task Force was brought about by the death of a ZBT brother that was unrelated to "Greek" activities. The decision made by the Task Force was made Friday according to the press release...Presidents of our houses were not notified until Monday early afternoon.

I truly believe that the decision made by the board was made w/o full concideration of their options. Attempts could have been made to work with those of us who are trying. Yes our system needed changes but no it did not need to be eliminated.
