Actually, not really a surprise. Although it is the New York Times, it's in many aspects a "national" newspaper. Not to mention the fact that this story was reported in countless news outlets - when something like that happens, the magazines will pick up on it as quickly as their turnaround time allows.

Don't you just love it when guys act as the know-it-all source of sorority life and functions?

So you really think that DZ's problem at Depauw could have been solved by having a longer new member period?

Give the guy a chance -- he might know more about it than you do.

He's from California so I really doubt it.
BTW...how's that owl doing? Do you have a personal grudge against ASA you're not telling us about?

Yet you know that they were deadweight dragging the national organization down? How exactly does that work?

That has nothing to do with it actually. Have you actually read anything here like the mega-thread about the whole situation, or are you just completely buying what DZ is saying officially? Also you readily admit that you don't know the chapter or the members, yet you have these magical opinions about how DZ was right and the whole chapter was wrong. Odd. Is your wife a DZ?

The same way that you automatically know he's wrong.

Eh, he's talking out of his ass and wants to go back to the days of pledge training. Coming in and declaring that he KNOWS how it is and the DZ women are just deadweight ignores the fact that not only has everyone here on GC discussed this much more indepth, but also that he doesn't know how NPC orgs work.

Some people were meant to be Greek and others were in it for the wrong reasons. I don't know the ladies who were removed and I don't know the chapter or it's members. I can just see this happening on any of our campuses and it sucks. Some people work so hard to make their organizations great and a few discruntle people who have been removed for not carrying their weight can ruin an entire chapter. It sucks.

amen, being Greek is very much a privilege

I know he's wrong because he's blaming sorority problems on shorter new member periods.

Frankly, none of us know anything about it unless we are students at DePauw or on from the Delta Zeta National office.
It's all speculation.

Yeah ok, we get it. You've kind of been one note in this thread and I'm not sure why you're popping up now to defend some guy who lays all of it at the feet of Universities having too much control over Greeks and other stupid shite.
Sure, being Greek is a privilege, they'd already received the privilege, and removing members is different than dropping girls during recruitment.
Greeks should learn that having a chapter on campus is a privilege not a right.
