IT'S LIKE EURIPEDES, BUT WITH RAPE
Dominic Greene signs Delt's walking papers

Goodbye, Delta Tau Delta. It was fun. Whatever did you do to deserve the wrath of UHAS? (Ew, acronym watch.)

Right. Chime in, people. We know it's over for Delt via Dominic Greene's all-Greek system e-mail, but what finally did it? Roll the tape.

The record stretches way back into the wretched days of Kyle Pendleton, who tried to be like hemlock for fraternities. It was during his reign, in January 2004, that some cocky Delt pledges, part of the frat's biggest pledge class ever, decided to snap photos of their fellow pledge fucking some slag in the chapter room. Excuse the lexicon! I try to fit in sometimes.

Onwards. This poor freshman girl filed a complaint! Naturally shit got rather nasty. Pendleton stretched the investigation out, eventually getting DTD International to levy "private" sanctions on the house, but no one said what they were. It also led to a sexual assault course for Greek students, but the fratasticness was back in effect that fall with an aggressive rush.

And then not a peep for three years. So what was it? I'll tell all, if I see a few educated guesses down there in the comments first.

Cut one of their pledges across the neck?

Well. There we have one thing that will not get you kicked off campus. So what could Delt have done that was so much worse?

many delts say it was because their house was messy.

Isn't the question: What could UHAS actually prove?

Kassner said...

Ooh, so many good questions. Looks as though we should revisit this soon. Who knows, maybe there will even be some real reporting involved!

i heard it had something to do with having a formal at an art gallery and ruining a bunch of priceless art.

why you would host a frat formal at an art gallery in the first place is beyond me.

but this could all be hearsay.

...perhaps you mean a holiday party, no? that gallery owner did seem pretty livid, from what i remember, at least.

maybe if kassner had gotten a bid from delt and not gone crying towards lodge he wouldn't need to spend time blogging...
