Delt, I don't think we'll see any real meaningful changes until one large international GLO goes under as a result of a lawsuit - it ALMOST happened to ATO a few years back.
I wish it weren't true, but I just don't see undergraduate members willing to change, nor International HQ's taking a hard enough stand - even with the "zero tolerance" policies in place.
Soon, somewhere, someone is going to die from an alcohol/hazing incident that causes such an uproar, a national GLO will come crashing down as a result of the resulting legal battles. Then, and only, then, will the rest of the greek community finally take the actions that should've been taken beforehand.
It's a sad truth, but it's the truth.

LXAAlum, I regret to say it, but I tend to agree with you. It might even take two large inter/nationals going under to do it.

I've said pretty much the same thing before. I'm also afraid you're right.
