While I am sure everyone involved would like to think that no one could be so stupid, having been at several UA Bid Days, I can tell you that even at 10:00 a.m. there is a sufficient amount of alcohol flowing among fraternities and many actives in sororities that 'best judgement' may not be in use. I could see how, fueled by a couple of drinks on not enough sleep or food, this could easily happen. Lesson learned too late...

I agree that there is plenty of "stupid" to go around, but I'm still holding out hope that there is more to the story. The university's investigation is apparently still underway, so they must be taking additional investigative steps and time that Chi O nationals did not.

It's a big deal, since not only do these accusations wreck the life of a young woman, these also reflect horribly on her chapter, university and state.

I totally agree with you, HartofSEC, I would love for their to be some plausible way this didn't happen. Unfortunately, 'snapchat' has sold a bill of lies to kids telling them their messages are temporary. A simple screenshot will save it for posterity. The thing is that now we have to believe that someone maliciously saved a screenshot and modified it in a program where said picture is only available for a matter of seconds. Possible, but seems unlikely. I hate it for the University most of all. I would never judge a whole group of girls by one member, but it seems that all of the south is judged by the actions of a few every day.
