Is the article true? If so, then it's sort of hard to defend you. You broke campus policy and probably the law. Read through a few articles on here. Kids go to jail for much less than what is alleged in these complaints.
As far as the "outrage," if you read the article, you'll note that the "emasculation" comment was a quotation from a professor of Asian-American studies. You can't blame Jackson, he was just out to get some answers.

A quote from the article: "He says some of the Lambdas he knows feel "emasculated" because they're Asian"
The professor later told us that he never said that. And he mentioned that many of the other things he was quoted to say were completely taken out of context.

Well, if PJ is worth a crap, he taped the interview so he wouldn't misquote. The quote sounds pretty ignorant anyhow. Groups don't haze because they feel emasculated, they do so because it's effective at team building.
That said, I guess you're not taking issue with the hazing accusations?

Of course we do. But I have to be extremely careful about that, which is why I don't want to write about it just yet because anyone can take my words out of context as well and twist them around. (you've already gotten my PM right?)

Actually, no. I never got a PM from you.

Ugh.. that's strange. I'll write you again later (it took me awhile to write that PM reply). Thanks for at least keeping an open mind though and not immediately jumping to conclusions.

If you sent it, you might want to check your "sent" folder in your email box and make sure it was correctly addressed.
[my apologies everyone, I'll clean this up when I get his PM]
