Why is it that greek's on a college campus are always singled out. I'm 100% that the incident at the Lambda Chi house wasn't the only alcohol related accident on that campus last semester.
While at Umass, the greek system always had a bad reputation, no matter how much good or how long we stayed out of trouble. There were countless drinking incidents, rapes, accidents, etc., all over Amherst and especially in the Umass dorms.
I always found it amazing that the Umass greek system, probably a couple hundred students, was always to blame for anything that happened anywhere on a campus of almost 28,000 students. And even if an incident was reported that was non-related to the greek system, the news reporter would always find a way to work some past mistake by a greek into the story.
A little advice to any college president: You guys may want to clean up the mess in your own dorms first before you try to start a greek witch hunt.
