Woah now, I think this is a pretty big news story that could end up affecting ALL Greeks. I don't think it's inappropriate for him to post it in the general fourms. If the Iotas want to start their own discussion about it, they will. And if the Que didn't post it, someone else would have anyway. This isn't something that's going to end up hush-hush.

The point is, one's Greek affiliation shouldn't matter when posting news stories about Greeks.
And any time the word fraternity or sorority gets attached to someone who does or is suspected of doing something stupid, crazy, or violent, it affects the entire Greek community.
Also, multiquote function. It can be your friend. Click it on each post you want to reply to and then click post reply.

Within the NPHC it does matter. That's the point you and others don't get.

This is the multiquote feature...it's the middle button between "Quote" and "Quick Reply" on the bottom right. You just push that button on all the posts you want to reply to, then push "Post Reply" and they all show up. Like this:

So, Wolfman shouldn't have posted it, because he's a Que, but your other contention is that someone wouldn't have posted that about their own Frat. SOOOO....that leaves someone in the IFC/NIC/NPC GLOs to post it. Would that have made you happier????

I know Iota is like the odd man out of the NPHC and I think that attitude is stupid. That said, the other NPHC members don't seem to agree with your stance which suggests it is YOUR stance, not the NPHC stance.

Someone help me understand something. If he was on academic probation and sat out a year because of it, how is his gpa high enough to participate in any campus activity, much less be president of a chapter?

I haven't been able to figure out the probation/freshman status/president bit of it myself.
