Surprising

Wow, that is a shocker. I met some brothers from there last summer in Chapel Hill they were really nice guys and knew a lot about the fraternity. This demonstrates three brothers do not make up the whole fraternity. I have heard from various people they were a good chapter one of the strongest in North Carolina, obviously some things have changed and they deserved the punishment that was given to them.
With no chapter at Duke, NC State and for the meantime Charlotte University {just changed their name} we do not have a presence at three big schools in North Carolina, all three of those schools had strong chapters in the past.
As to the greek scene at Charlotte it is bad, not many people go greek and the university doesn't really care about greeks, a lot like UNC-Wilmington. When the all greek average is a 2.5 something is obviously wrong with the individuals that make up the fraternities there and when the greek officials give awards to fraternities like Lambda Chi for academic excellence with a 2.4-2.5 average that is absurd. There are only four sororites there and they do not have more than 80 people, there are more fraternities than sororites which I also find odd for a school over 15,000 people. Lambda Chi Alpha was the second biggest fraternity there but like I said winning awards like "best social life" and "academic acheivement" with an average of 2.5 in the fall are not great things, so it could say something about what happened to this chapter and shows what their priorities were. I hate losing chapters and it sucks they got busted, hopefully they can work things out and come back and have a better presence in the future.
