Only actives get big brothers? Something sounds fishy. I don't know what fraternity this is but I don't know of any where you don't have a big brother while pledging. And honestly, I would have put that you were pressured to buy coke on the forms because that indicates a serious problem with the chapter if they have people doing coke and are actively getting pledges to obtain it for them.

You made the right choice in terminating your affiliation. Honestly if you care about that chapter still I'd discretely contact nationals because if actives are pressuring pledges to get coke, there is a very serious problem that might end up getting the chapter closed. This fraternity sounds like it's on a downward spiral into oblivion.

I'd be more worried about the chapter if they couldn't get coke/pot/pills.

Who the fuck are their friends?

LOL, but yeah. If they need to rely on the pledges to supply them, this is one lame ass fraternity.
