Unlike the last story, this was a well-written column.

The FIJI chapter should have written a letter to the editor, educating the campus about proper use of their letters, and asked for a retraction and apology in the next campus humor magazine.

This is a good example which shows the actions of a few reflect back on the entire fraternity.

Yes, FIJI had every right to be upset to see their letters published. Every FIJI knows his letters have limited usage. The general public does not, and unfortunately, even the greatest due dilgence by the publication probably would not have unearthed the fact that FIJIs have specific usage rules among membership for their letters.

Where FIJI went wrong was where a few members went around destroying the publication. It only led to bad PR for their chapter.

There is a right way to go about things, and this is a good example for other GLO's to stop, think, and then act.
