That's unfortunate. When an individual accepts his bid card/invite into a GLO, he assumes a lot of the risk of other members. It's not that he has to pay for every wrongdoing by every individual member or alumni, but if the organization, as a whole, has an event or function, then every member of the organization is accountable for its success or failure. Had the sigma chi member in question just made a facebook page out of a personal beef with someone else, and did not include the name of his fraternity in the posting, then you're right. The entire fraternity shouldn't have to suffer. But the individual was representing an entire group in trying to get people to come to the party. It is a sacrifice of some individuality, but I know that if the party had been a huge success with nothing bad having happened, every member of the fraternity would take credit for the publicity.
Great fraternities act together. It's what sets them apart from every other student group at most schools.
