What I don't think most older LXA's realize is that drugs are much more present in our chapters than some care to admit.

Some chapters hide it better, some don't. However, drugs are still there.

And it's not just a LXA thing, or a college thing, it is the COMPLETE college environment.

While your statement or assumption may be true, I think LXAGrits spelled it out to the Nth degree. That is the stand of LXA and IHQ.

Fight and discuss it as you may want to, it has been explained.

I am not saying it doesn't happen as you said but it is not needed in our housings.

We had a member some years back who was smoking grass in the house and he was expulled. Remember that word, expulled?

At your maturing age, you can do as you please but it still doesn't make it proper in our house situations.

Bad PR = death sentence

Regardless of what "really" happened, I can say with a degree of certainty that the SDSU chapter will be closed.

It's not so much the allegations that may be either true OR false. It's not so much that it's a recently reconstituted chapter. It's not so much that they were "stand up" guys. It's not so much they may or may not have used/dealt drugs.

It's that they will go the way of Colorado State University (Gamma Pi) - they made headlines, pure and simple.

Headlines that are bad publicity for the fraternity are simply not tolerated. CSU was NEVER found "guilty" of the charges that were broadcast in the press, but, since it made it to the press, it was over.

SDSU will suffer the same fate.

Bummer, but it's reality.

And you my dear friend hope you are wrong!

If say one-three were involved and none of the others were aware of it, then why punish the rest who are good and hard working Brothers!


The Zeta there seems overly all to be doing a great job.

I am getting tired of blaming the whole Brotherhood for a few transgressions.
