I know I generally would if it were up to me.

Although I've read about at least one occasion where fraternity alumni have dragged the chapter into their own little turf war (or at least that was the allegation of some active members), most of the time, I think you could expect the alumni chapter to be very interested in the success and existence of the chapter. If they are the ones most interested in pulling the plug, you probably have a big problem on your hands.

And if the allegations here are true, yuck. I know you can't always depend on college guys to have good judgment, but if you're using you chapter website for that you probably have some really creepy guys.

(Anyone else troubled by the "delete first, sort out the punishment later" aspect of how it was handled though?
If there's a discrepancy between what was alleged to have been linked and what the guys confessed too, shouldn't
they on some level have the right to clear their names? Not that you couldn't close the chapter just for linking to bad facebook pictures rather than porn, but it seems a little wrong to me to not allow them the opportunity of clearing up the worst allegations. Removing any outside links is certainly in the interest of any women pictured, but truly deleting the site deprives the guys of any defense. )
