I go to Northwestern, and Kappa Sigma was (and still is) my favorite fraternity. They had been on probation for slightly over a year due to an incident with a pledge getting sent to the hospital for alcohol poisoning during a pledge mom hunt.
They had been trying to get back off probation. The Shedd Aquarium thing was really unfortunate; the "animal endangerment" charge relates to someone dropping a flash in a whale tank (the whale was unhurt, he returned the flask to his trainer).
I feel really bad - they were such fun, nice guys, and my pledge brother was president at the time this happened - he had been working so hard to try to get the fraternity back on track.
