thanks, ISUKappa.

I typically look at these accounts with a HUGE amount of skepticism and doubt. When we hear negative things, I have said (and written) many times: it could be any chapter, anywhere, on any day. And we weren't there, we really don't know what happened. Any chapter contains "rogue" or "problem" members. It's simple probability. Take away the letters and ask: is this person a decent human being? You'll have an answer.

Having recently been on the receiving end of published criticism and gossip/talk that was unfounded, or based on half-truths, I will say again that it is NOT FUN and it makes me really angry.

I know for a fact that it contains multiple inaccuracies regarding the Chapter I advise, as well as the one I was initiated into. Perhaps other online databases are more accurate? When I need to check the status of an alumna, I contact our HQ directly, and don't even look at InCircle.

[QUOTE=ISUKappa;2138208]To my knowledge, it's not InCircle.

I don't believe that it is InCircle, either, FWIW.

AZTheta: I try as well to look at reports like this with some degree of skepticism and doubt. I agree, as far as I know, none of us where there on the campus of Dartmouth for this or for the Sigma Alpha Epsilon matter. That said, the news media picks up events like these much more than the good deeds that GLO's do. Just this Noon, my local CBS station had not one but TWO hazing cases on it! And I know that one of the two anchors is a member of a Fraternity. And sadly if one does a simple search under hazing, even more show up just about every day involving many GLO's. And those are just the ones getting caught at it.
