As a current student at The University of Oklahoma i will put forth a few words on this:
This is extremely sad and has an impact on much of the Norman Campus. From his friends, classmates and those in his fraternity to those that have never met him and see that this has hit so close to home much of the student body is taking this to heart. I myself have had numerous converstions about this with people.
Now don't hate me for this next part but the Sigma Chis here don't have a spotless history. They have been on social probation numerous times since i have been in norman and they have even celebrated this with a Shirt they made last spring in which it had the list of the semesters they have been on social probation going back to the late 80s and claiming that it is just tradition. I knew with their reckless behavior it was only a matter of time til something happened i just never knew it would be this. Two years ago it was a hazing incident last year it was an insident with a girl passed out in their lawn(this was definately not their fault the girl was walking from another party but they still caught the punishment from it), and earlier this year they had an unknown incident where multiple police vehicles were in front of their house. And now this. Well I truly am sad this happened and i wish it just didn't happen.
Most likely the Sigma Chi Charter will get pulled and beyond that the Police are treating this as a homicide and possibly taking legal action against the Fraternity and the Exec members or those they can find at fault. Plus the students father is a District Judge so i think the family will seek a punishment or a suit against the fraternity.
All of this is too early to speculate but i truly wish it didn't happen.
