True enough, DeltAlum! But...it would have been more accurate if the writer had put down the address of where the rape allegedly took place. (i.e. The woman told police she walked with a male acquaintance to 210 Fratboy Lane after seeing him at George's on Dickson Street) The writer has determined that the location of this fraternity house is common knowledge but, to someone who is a random and not familiar with the greek scene, it might not be.

*****edited to add another point*****
IMO, including the name of the fraternity house in the article is akin to writing something like, "The woman told police she walked with a male acquaintance to Kent Dorfman's house after seeing him at George's on Dickson Street". Not everyone is going to know where Kent Dorfman lives.
