I doubt they 'gave them up'. When they have what they think is evidence and the legal standing to seize it, 'giving it up' doesn't happen. They just take.
Makes me wonder if the ritual they use could possibly be used as evidence to support the violent hazing. I wouldn't know either way.

Either way, whether they are a registered Oganization or a psuedo group using Greek Letters, this throws a bad light on everyone no matter who it is.
People have blinders when it comes to Greeks. They have Greek Letters and screw up, than all Greeks must do the same no matter what.

Lambda Phi Epsilon = Theta Nu Xi?
Basically the same principle.

Actually no one has given much of any thought about the event around here until the indictment information was released.

I think the title of "number one party school" at UT created more backlash towards GLO's then this incident.

That is a fair point. I know for a fact the University administration is pretty upset at this dubious honor (and obviously they would be.)
The heavy crack-down in West Campus on any ordinance violations- even if not reported- earlier this year surely stemmed from that as well.
Yet another media-driven situation to inconvenience our lives.
Tallgreekalum- if you want names, let's take it to PM if we may. No big secrets or anything, but I figure if a GLO does not advertise itself and is leading a quiet existence, then it is not my place to broadcast it on the internet.

An active house was herassed by authority for over a year.... what do you expect for them to do in that predicament? If anything, you have to think about the people that gave themselves up, perhaps hoping for a less severe punishment.
