very good to hear from you, JAM, and i agree with you that things here are not "bleak" for any of the fraternities and sororities!
LXA and DG, as well as KA, are all VERY strong chapters with lots of very outstanding members. in fact, a DG was just made homecoming queen! i've heard rumors about stuff that may or may not go in in KA Order, but even they have great reputations on campus. the "violations" and subsequent probations are really not as major as they might seem...it's just true that LSU is trying to make sure our greek life system is the cream of the crop
