He called the decision "political. They are discriminating against us. (Killing the fish) was not an organizational event. It was not a pledge event. We do not condone cruelty to animals."

My thoughts on the article...
1. Sounds like they already act like an "underground renegade fraternity"
2. Sanchis said the fraternity didn't agree to the university ruling? Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but do the GLO's in question actually get to "agree" to it?
I always thought if you did something bad enough to get kicked off campus, it was a campus decision, not the GLO.
3. Ok.. it wasn't an organizational event.. it wasn't a pledge event, and they do not condone cruelty to animals. Fair enough. But if they want to be a greek-lettered-organization that is recognized by the school, they should have to play by the same risk-management rules everyone else has to play by.
Bottom line is, it doesn't have to be an "organizational or pledge event".. GLO's can still get in trouble for things that happen on or off property... whether it's an organized event or not.

The guys wore those shirts and made those comments during spring preview (like you mentioned and like mentioned by another GC'er), so if the sexual harrassment charges already started their punishment by the school, then they deserved it because they did that as a group.
It was bad enough they were actively petitioning for MTV to film them when the school obviously did not want the cameras there... and they made it worse for themselves by their actions.
I just feel they brought on their own fate. It all could have been avoided if they hadn't acted so immature.
