UCF Sig Ep suspended

Were the guys not doing these kinds of things when I was a student there, or has it just gotten worse?

I think it's probably getting worse. It's also funny how most of the fraternities are getting in trouble.

They were doing those things but they weren't stupid about it so they didn't get caught. By the time my senior year rolled around, the guys weren't afraid of publicly hazing their pledges.

At this rate, Greek Row will become Sorority Row by 2010.

It is not fun for the sororities when this happens on campuses (many fraternities getting disciplined). Two of the six fraternities that opened on my campus 10 years ago are no longer there...they were kicked off for hazing and other serious matters. And at least one other fraternity has a history of being placed on probation by the school. One new fraternity has been brought in to replace one of the two that closed, but the greek system still feels very lopsided. The sororities are so well put-together, and the fraternities are chaotic.

What a shame, there seems to be a history at the school!

When was Pi Kapp suspended???

(Add to kicked off campus: Pi Kappa Alpha)

Still plenty of fraternities, but aside from LXA, Sigma Chi, Kappa Sig, ATO and possibly DU, the rest have very small numbers. Acacia closed a few years ago; down to one member.

What happened to Delta Gamma? I know they did not participate in Formal Recruitment this year, but are they totally off campus? I thought they were still around trying to re-organize their current chapter and be able to recruit this semester or something like that. I hope they do not completely go off campus since they have been there for so long.

That's really unfortunate. It also may be part of the reason Florida recently enacted its tougher anti-hazing law.

That's a good question.

Then again...from reading that article one MIGHT get the impression that that is a kid who got kicked out during pledging and is upset over it and is now trying to paint the fraternity in a negative light. Not saying that's the case, just that that is how it could be interpreted.

Regardless, this hazing BS needs to stop at UCF (and everywhere for that matter)

Well obviously, making sure that all of the potential members would jump into a garbage can full of crisco, cottage cheese, syrup and sardines is a fine way to make sure that organizations initiate only the finest!

I think it has always gone on, but now the school has every greek orginization under a microscope, and are now looking for any little thing to get them in trouble

No Stuff. Where have you been?

It is wrong, it is wrong and will be wrong and stupid on their parts!

If they as new possible members are good enough to be brought to the GLO why debase them?

Teach them about your GLO and lead them, not s**T on them!
