Shouldn't you be crawling back under a blanket at the Delt house or something?

eta - and getting back to the idea of risk management, do many fraternities have house moms or live-in advisors/help? What could a fraternity do to avoid this kind of liability? (Other than not pledge idiots . . .)

You don't have a cogent thought so you resort to a statement like that? That really exemplifies the narrow limits of your intellectual capacity.

Um, it's a joke. My cogent thought was a joke. I even put a smilie on it so someone of the limited "intellectual capacity" you have demonstrated could understand that. Sorry I overestimated you. So I stand corrected - shouldn't you be crawling back under your rock?

And I must now go sob into my pillow because my intellectual capacity has been insulted by someone on the internet. Boo hoo.

Just for the sake of clarity, it appears to me that the suit is against the two members and the chapter, not the fraternity.

Let's remember that there's a difference that we, as members of Greek Letter Organizations, all should understand.

Right?
