I am sure the money will go to IHQ, let us hope that they will use some of at least to recharter there.

Love it...not the part about the chapter closing, but I'm glad someone finally realized that fraternity and sorority chapters, especially ones with houses, function much like a business. And if you slander them (which it sounds like happened, since the school had dismissed hazing charges but continued to willingly cause harm to the chapter by using the tape further) you will be forced to pay whatever damages occur as a result.

When the schools start suing chapters for the same reasons who do you think is going to come out on top?

The recent ruling will be appealed, according to press reports:

For slander? Which organizations have knowingly fabricated stories to intentionally cause harm to a university? Slander is hard to prove, but Phi Delt had a case here.

Thank You!

Maybe, just maybe, it is time that the playing field becomes more even!

When a GLO is wrong so be it, but when a school is wrong, it is even worse as they want to hold control.
But we as GLOs do have a right to survive if we do not shoot ourselves in the foot first.
