No surprise. They haven't been back on campus that long... Took them very little time to get in trouble again.

Tonight I saw that the DKE's have put up a banner that says Good Luck With Recruitment, I guess to the other fraternities and sororities on campus. Quite funny if you ask me!

DEKE got screwed

Just an update on this, DEKE is now being kicked off campus for two years becuase of a second alcohol related offense. A fire alarm went off and the fire department and police arrived at the scene to find the house empty. Because the alarm was going off, the cops entered the hosue and found beer which is a violation of the Universiy's alcohol policy. They have appealed to everyon including the chancelor, but it seems as if they are gone.

Absolutely fucking ridiculous.

At Ole Miss all fraternities who have a party in their own house have to register the party. I know they have been doing this for a while. They also are required to have a guest list and security at their party. I guess this is done for risk management reasons and liability reasons.

Here is a link to the Ole Miss IFC Constitution.

I suppose since you haven't rushed yet and are not in a GLO, you might not understand risk management and liability.
