The pussies of this nation have been pushing to do away with the Greek System for a long time. I can see it starting at a lot of school in the next 10 years.

I wonder if it's that new synthetic LSD. It killed a guy at VooDoo fest and injured 26 others (overdosed)

Very bad stuff and it's spreading right now. It's the synthetic equivalent of angel trumpets ( a plant I would never have around) - very bad and deadly yet risked because of hallucinogens.

West Virginia University suspended all fraternity and sorority activities on Thursday following what officials called a “catastrophic medical emergency.”



Better link



quote:

All fraternities and sororities at West Virginia University were suspended Thursday after a freshman was found unconscious and not breathing inside a fraternity house — just a week after a different fraternity was suspended over a street brawl, university officials and police said.

Nolan Michael Burch, 18, of Buffalo, New York, was in critical condition in intensive care Thursday at Ruby Memorial Hospital in Morgantown, police and a hospital spokesman said. Morgantown police said they were called to the Kappa Sigma house about midnight Wednesday and found a man performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation on Burch, who was lying on the floor. Burch wasn't breathing and had no pulse, police added.

OK so they suspended the ENTIRE greek system over the separate incidents of a single Snapper and 19 Sigma Chis?

Way to over-react WVU.

why don't the west virginia frats move their trailers off campus so the school can't tell them what to do?

Link says activities are suspended, not as if the organizations themselves are. Maybe I just read the OP wrong.

I'm more shocked that anyone in West Virginia has attended college.

This an attack not only fraternities, but on the entire education system ... and in turn an attack on America. I, for one, will not stand for it:

The Otter Defense

Ironically, these charges and the subsequent defense were on 15 November, 1962, Douglas C. Neidermeyer ... (tomorrow).
