Well even two incidents from different houses.. or in a 20-chapter conference, 4 incidents.. whatever. In all of these cases, the vast majority of the chapters on campus had no demonstrable issues and yet were still punished for things completely beyond their control.

I believe it was Arizona who suspended all houses and had them reapply as if they were applying for new recognition. I think that's okay. In fact, that's part of what my chapter does every single year in a way. We deliver extensive reports to the school and to our HQ regarding our candidate process, risk management.

I understand the Greek Life office is in touch with us and knows who we are, but I suspect these decisions to place the entire system on probation come from higher ups who don't know that there is a huge difference between the various chapters. I'd like to think that if we play by the rules and manage ourselves well, we can avoid the adverse consequences of other people's stupidity, but maybe not.
