I honestly just can't wait for like two weeks to pass becasue I gauruntee everyone will forget about this. The other thing that bother's me is once something like this happens it's like oh the Greeks are giving UCF a bad name, it's just so easy to be a target. When a GDI dies of alcohol poisoning, or goes to the hospital nobody is like Damn those idiot GDI's are ruining everything. I guess it just comes with the territory. On another note I notice a lot of strife within sororities here on campus. I hear about littles talking bad about their bigs and things of that nature. I think that shows a serious problem with how new members are brought into the Sororities.

You're right. It will be ancient history in a few weeks. And all women gossip about each other. This isn't a problem exclusive to UCF or sororities. It concerns the entire gender. Not everyone in a sorority LUVS everyone in their sorority all of the time. Yes, sororities shouldn't concern fraternity men with their chapter problems, but I think it is reasonable that a woman should be allowed to vent to her friends, regardless of gender, if someone has upset her and she is trying to figure out the means to cope or deal with that person.

We're not talking apples and apples here.
If an independent were to die due to an event by an organized group, you can bet that it would be a big deal on campus and in the news.
Normally, though, the Library Club probably won't be throwing a keg party -- well, at most schools.

Yeah so when a group of friends holds a keg party I get it. Someone can leave their house and get in a deadly drunk driving accident, and not expect to have reporters walking into their house uninvited etc. That to me is a problem, when a group is being punished on a sole reason of being an organization that is BS especially if noone was harmed. As for HQ those guys had to have done a lot worse stuff than this. They're just trying to be PC, which unfortunatly so is the rest of this country, I think it's time things got real again.

I don't think that's true. I think pretty much any media would report where the person got drunk enough to cause the accident -- and depending on the laws of that location, the people who allowed someone to get that drunk could be held accountable.
"The driver had just left a party at..."
It would certainly be true of commercial establishments (bars, restaurants, etc.).

Inspite of what some SAE Members on G C say, it looks like SAE IHQ is starting to hold a no nonsense priority as I read the IHQ Site.

It's a website Tom......not the be all, end all to everything that SAE does. Stop trying to be some investigative know-it-all douchebag. I am well aware of what our "National Policy" states..........because I know that you are referring to me. Everything I have stated is from my point of view or experience. I am not speaking on behalf of SAE nationals......so quit while you are behind.

Say what??
Tom, I know I have never said anything against my National and I do not recall anyone else doing so.
You may be confusing "IMHO/POV" statements vs policy statements.
And from what I have seen here, been told or read elsewhere, most Nationals will hold same no nonsense policy in matters we have seen here.
And we have not seen everything that is going on; both in these matters as well as many others that are going on out there at many other GLO's.
