["The author] has made a far more valuable to contribution to American college life than any fraternity ever could."
Usually the CSM is a pretty fair publication, but this quote is just absurd. The author is going to probably go on a tour of some B rated radio programs to promote his book, then he'll soon fade into obscurity and all will be forgotten.

He doesn't make any points we don't already know about. This contributes nothing to the conversation. Nor, if it suggests that eliminating the Greek system as a solution, does it present any sort of rational or possible solution to the perceived problems.

And really, Sigma Alpha Epsilon might have a nice little lawsuit on their hands. The title of the book, "True Gentlemen," seems problematic as does the statement "Undergraduate women at colleges across the country will tell you that SAE stands for 'Sexual Assault Expected.'"
