VCU fraternity under investigation after death of freshman student

[GoldBows]

Yet another hazing death- he was blindfolded, fed tons of alcohol, hit his head and then found dead face-down.

Hey fraternity men, if you can't get your chapters to stop hazing, at least teach them to roll people onto their sides in the recovery position when they pass out from alcohol poisoning so they don't choke on their own vomit and die.

The article says, "Mr. Oakes was placed on a couch on his side, and he was found dead on Saturday morning, face down, she said" So, it does look like they did that and he still passed.

I would rather they not haze and do the "drink until you die" thing.

Virginia Commonwealth University announced Tuesday it was launching a review of Greek life at the school following the death of freshman Adam Oakes after a fraternity event last week.
