Yeah, I was going to say something about how I knew you had talked to plenty of people surrounding the young man already, but I figured it was your place.

I too Brother-I somehow think that the OP(Reality Check1) either crossed threads or crossed posters. Or at least I hope that is what happened.

So I'm not A big GreekChat.com user but stumbled on this thread because I'm bored out of my mind.

I happen to be a LXA at SMU and our house is situated literally 20 paces away from the SAE chapter house.

I just want to weigh in because it seems like everyone who has posted has heard this news from a second or third party source.

I will not comment on the Chapter, I will not comment on Mr. Stiles (apart from the fact that he was a good human being and an all around great guy), and I will not comment on the social scene at SMU.

I am just asking for everyone to stop speculating and pay their respects. This truly has had a tremendous impact on the SMU campus and within Greek Life. I had a huge sinking feeling for quite some time. What pains me even more is that this thread continues and reminds everyone of the tragic event. Also, stop bitching at one another about what happened. It's not worth it.

I have several friends who are SAE's and we, as a chapter, did the best we could to make them feel comfortable. As a house we offered our condolences.

Tom Earp, I don't know who you are or what your chapter is like. All I know is that you are a LXA (LCA if you prefer) and you know better than to lecture. Now is not a time to be (or even seem) imposing.

Please, stop speculating, have some dignity, and just offer your condolences.

thank you.
