I just received a long email from one of my sisters who is currently living on the southside and what is happening at DU. They are on spring break so she was able to give me some answers to the questions everyone has been asking.

She said that housing at DU was a horrible mess this year. Greek groups were sent a memo that was vague and didn't tell them what they needed to know about greek housing. That led to almost everyone losing their full wing housing..I think she said maybe one or two have a full greek wing housing contract.

Greek Life didn't help them with the problem nor did Panhellenic so each group just did what they thought was right. Then, dean of students got upset because the wings were not filled. They all started to yell at each other. She said everyone is demoralized, angry, pissed off, etc. Some are starting to rethink why they decided to go greek in the first place.

Also, they said greek life office demands so much of them that they can't get their studying done. If you don't show up they yell at your group for things and check to see who was there/not there at things that should be fun.

Carnival is stuck in Palumbo this year for just a day or two and none of the greek groups were told much until the last minute. Its been thrown together and they still have to do some cleanup thing on the southside the same day.

It seems like it is a bunch of different issues all coming together at the same time.

From this post (and some of your others) it seems like the issue is the office of Greek Life. Have you spoken with your faculty advisor?
