Nice policy UB, guilty until proven innocent. Suspend them, permanently scar their reputation on campus, and forbid them from pledging when they haven't done anything wrong. And if you ask me, that policy seems to have a connection with academic efforts. Unless they can show it has impaired the academic efforts of the allegedly hazed, then they may be off the hook. But of course, we all know how this one will turn out...

That's the way UB operates. They have a very anti-greek administration. They have a tendency to shoot first and ask questions later. Last year they suspended the entire Greek System for a week, because someone, who didn't even go to UB, might have been drinking at a rush event, and later a bar, and drove his car off a bridge into the Niagara River. The Key-Word being might. They ended up charging the fraternity that was supposedly responsible with a mess of charges, including a BS hazing charge. When they found him, toxicology reports proved that he was sober... and they quietly exonerated them, and put them on probation, a full four months after the fact, the whole thing cost them a semester, they were unable to take a Spring Class, and couldn't participate in the Annual IFC Pledge Football Tournament, which to win is a tremendous honor. Since the tournament is tommorrow morning, Sigma Chi Omega will not be participating, which cheapens the tournament even further.
It's UB Politics at it's finest.
