Moving away from the Gun Control debate for a moment to reflect back on the victims and survivors, and how their Greek affiliations are working to support them at this time.
Lauren Rousseau, a substitute teach at Sandy Hook, was a member of Pi Beta Phi (Connecticut Alpha chapter). A scholarship has been set up in her name through Pi Beta Phi Foundation.

Kappa Kappa Gamma was affected in several ways. First, a Kappa lost a son in the tragedy. In addition, a surviving teacher at Sandy Hook is a Kappa. Finally, one of the teachers that was killed is the cousin of a Kappa husband. Kappa is collecting condolence cards for these families,

Finally, a member of Beta Theta Pi lost his precious 6 year old daughter, Caroline. His chapter brothers are working to raise $100,000 to endow a Beta scholarship in little Caroline's name.

There may be more Greek connections than just these three, and my apologies for any unintended omissions. I learned of these through T_witter.
