Sad, but reasonable under the circumstances.
Miami (OH) has been seeing quite a lot of closures and sanctions recently -- something in the water there, or just more awareness / willingness to take tough action when warranted?

I went to Miami. I think it's a combination? There's always been a lot of rich party kids on campus who are used to doing whatever they want without consequences, but it's also a highly ranked school that attracts a lot of smart kids who want to stand up and lead and do what's right and not sweep bad behavior under the rug. The school administration is generally very supportive of the positive parts of Greek life.
I was really surprised by Beta...when I was there and as recently as when my younger sister graduated (2010), they were a "top" fraternity but with the reputation of being total gentlemen you could take home to meet your parents. I had a lot of friends in the chapter and they were pretty adamant about not hazing.
