Really unfortunate. The UK Delt house itself is probably one of the nicest of any Delt chapter in the nation. I'll admit my bias, but I really hope they are able to stay on campus. I know he was caught dealing to his friends in the fraternity but one man's actions should not cost an entire fraternity their charter. Then again it seems like the Greek life office has been cracking down hard. They've kicked off 3 fraternities in I think the past two years, and two were very well established chapters to my knowledge.
And if we're being honest, it would naive to think there was a fraternity on campus that didn't smoke weed and I'm willing to bet others have a kid dealing in the house. Yes it's incredibly stupid but I don't think it's right to kick everyone out because of it. Maybe nationals will come in and do a membership evaluation of the entire fraternity. Either way, the chapter is going to be put through the ringer.
I guess we will just have to wait and see what happens. I'm willing to bet the UK Delt alumni and the national office will try to do what they can to save the chapter from getting kicked off campus. I believe the current Kentucky governor and the governor before him were both UK Delts.
