Maybe Arya or some other SUNY people can back me up on this?
I don't know how it is now, but I imagine it still the same. Most SUNY school have a lazie faire attitude toward the Greeks. We didn't even have a greek advisor from 1997 till I graduated. Not sure if they got a greek advisor now.

I can't really comment on how the other school function. I know that Oneonta pretty much had a cleaning house of fraternitities in the mid-90s due to prevelant hazings. Fraternities were only allowed back on campus very recently.

As for the PIRG, they do great work. They were in the forefront in fighting the rise of tuition in the late 90s. I am proud to be a member of the PIRG.

ETA: A lot of hazing I've seen around SUNY campuses are out in the public. And many openly boasted about it. This is all of course in the mid to late 90s.

The article is not very good at all. I give it F.
