I would probably disagree about the scandal part...it might not seem to be a big deal to the USC chapter itself, but I guarantee that the Headquarters considers this a VERY BIG deal. With all the media fire and negative publicity Greeks have received lately, I think the last thing ANY fraternity or sorority would want was to be affiliated with the very types of behavior that the general public stereotypes Greeks with.
How do you think a company like NIKE would like someone distributing a pornographic movie that showed people in a sweat shop having sex and performing other types of "deviant" behavior in front of a big NIKE sign. OR how about a porno movie about Coca Cola showing the "powerful white boss" making his minority workers submit to his sexual whims.
The basic idea is that NO company or corporation out there wants to be affiliated with the "dirty" business of porn, ESPECIALLY if any particular film is exploiting a stereotype or reputation that is trying to be lived down.
Sure, guys will joke and laugh about their fraternity being in a porn movie, but tell me what could there possibly be that would be a POSITIVE outcome from this case for the fraternity.
