This is too bad and sure doesn't help the reputation of the Greek System overall.

The link to the news story doesn't work.

Within the text you quoted, it mentioned "WSU" which is Washington State. In the title of this thread, you said it was "U. of Washington."

There is a BIG difference.

Weird link. Here's one, and I'll see what other link(s) I can come up with:

http://www.spokesmanreview.com/local....asp?ID=140641

Apparently it IS Washington State U., although I could swear the story said U. of Washington just a few hours ago. I apologize, and I'll try to fix the title of the thread.

Here's another link, to a station KPVI story from the AP:

http://www.kpvi.com/index.cfm?page=n...s.cfm&ID=35108

Another thing that can be done is to use Google News; search on a few keywords at the same time -- like
washington federal fraternity

That should bring up links to reports from a newspaper or two and a TV station or two in the Northwest. (And I was told the World Wide Innernet Web would make life simpler. Ha.)

Added: I tried to correct the main title of the thread, but can't do so. If a mod with The Power wishes to, I'd be all for it. Otherwise I'll just have to live with the infamy.

If the information given to me was correct, we are camping there on bid day. I'll make sure we pay all our fees, pick up the trash and the other issues don't apply as we have alcohol free bid days.

I read the articles that were in the local paper and my favorite part was a statement made that these students are mostly from Seattle and don't know how to act in the out of doors. I find that to be rather empty reasoning considering that the group had been there in previous years, and had already been spoken to about these problems. What's that saying, ignorance isn't an excuse for breaking the law?
