I know this is an old post; but, I was their Faculty-Staff Advisor at the time! I remember sitting down to watch the evening news with my dinner when the reporter chimed in with breaking news. The cameraman was taking a close-up shot of the burnt out window. I remember noticing the color of the house and thinking, "That looks like AXO." Then the camera panned back to show the entire house and all of the girls standing in the street in their pref dresses. My thought was "Crap! That *is* AXO!!"

I had just been appointed Faculty-Staff Advisor a few weeks earlier. Nothing says, "Welcome new advisor!" like having the girls' house catch on fire during pref!
