I know damn well that we did not raise a chapter of rapists. The question was ignorant and insensitive, but it was the action of one.

We had our Candlelight ceremony last night as a chapter, and it brought almost every one of us to tears. The fucking nerve people have to call my Fraternity a "sexist institution" is absolutely appalling. I just want to slap the shit out of anyone who even pokes at that...

As a proud Penn State alumna, I can say that I honestly know how you feel. The action of one person (or a few) does not define a fraternity or a university. Keep your head up. Sigma Phi Epsilon will overcome this.

Good article from a writer from Huffington Post. She's a member of Delta Zeta. The writer says that all GLO members should look at their ritual and ask ourselves if we are following our vows.

Meh. The whole "are you living your ritual?" harangue is kind of over the top for this. I mean, "Don't be a dick" is just as good. What these guys did/said was inappropriate for ANYONE to do/say, whether or not they had knowledge of a fraternity ritual, whether or not they were GLO members.
