I just stumbled onto this site today and was surprised to find this article here. I am a student at Northwestern currently and believe every word written in this article. I know Peter Jackson very well as we are in the same Fraternity. I believe that there is no possible way for him to lie.

He does have a penchant for breaking the rules but what he unearths is the truth.
I am delighted to see another member of the Multi-cultural greek council go down.
Although it is unfortunate, this had to be done. I mean come on, they were forcing them to drink stuff.

I do realize that this might sound a bit hypocritical as rumors about my fraternity float around on campus just as much as this Latino or asian or wahtever one.
But to clarify, the pledge who had his neck slit with a box cutter was a complete accident, he did not press charges, and he is a happy member of our fraternity today.

PLUS the rumors about this chinese frat also were crazy on campus. That's how Peter wrote the story, from all the rumors. He went to each source of the rumors, and EVEN WHEN none of them were even willing to talk to him. HE STILL DUG UP THE TRUTH from the tiny bits each of them had to say.

Peter had to DIG UP THE TRUTH, by putting together the details bit by bit and pieces by pieces until he discovered everything and put it down on paper. HOW IS THAT UNETHICAL OR HALF TRUTHS? he constructed the WHOLE story by using small details. Do you realize how much effort that would take? How long the whole 3 days he was working on the article actually took? He worked on this for so long.

True his assignment was to do a piece on MGC (...no one wants to read about them) but Peter found something the people wanted to read about, true or not.

and you know what, who cares if all his sources were freshman who didn't receive bids.

IT DOSEN"T MATTER. THE TRUTH STILL CAME OUT. AND THATS ALL THAT MATTERS.

HE IS AN SENSATIONAL JOURNALIST AND SHOULD BE GIVEN AN AWARD FOR THIS ARTICLE.

"chinese frat"

Wow. I honestly don't know what to say here... I didn't think there'd be people this ignorant on our campus.
