I agree with you but a lot of Greek alum would stop giving money. Last I heard over 50% of donations are from Greek alum. Even if that is off it is significant. The punch will be felt. Not sure what they would do with houses either. LSU owns the land but chapters own the houses

I'm not sure that they envy Greek life so much as just succumb to group think.
As opposed to independently joining together with 100k others to cheer on their team on Saturday night.
I find it pretty funny that all of these self-righteous GDIs celebrate their independence, yet dress in school colors, chant school cheers, and sing the school song in unison. They LOVE being part of that exclusive group, but hate those who further separate themselves within it. Don't kid yourself, the reason GDIs who hate Greeks hate them is that they perceive that Greeks set themselves away and above those who are not members.
Basic human tribal instinct. They see a threat to the unity of the larger tribe when some among it set themselves apart. No different than hate for exclusive country clubs, Mardi Gras Krewes, etc.

Ah yes.
But there are all kinds of "nuke the whole area" posts when a thread about those come up.
LSU actually did it, and people are pissed.

More than 70% of donations to the Flagship, outside of TAF contributions, come from Greek alums at LSU.
Just buzz one of the Foundation Board members and ask.

In the meantime, a kid is dead who shouldn't be. Other kids are in jail facing charges. The Ole War Skule is in the news -- again -- for something bad.
Greek, GDI, hater, lover, envier: it doesn't matter. This is an AWFUL thing for LSU.

Perhaps now the fraternities can stay at an LSU football for longer than 1 quarter since they wont have anything else to do?

This story made the local Houston 6:00 News. I suspect it will spread to national news soon.

CNN and the NYT have already put out articles.

My gf, who's in alpha phi, said that others in the sorority saw that there were snapchats of some of the phi delts "studying" and for every time they got a question wrong they'd take a shot. I highly doubt that they were studying but who knows. Also i don't know if the kid was with them in the snaps either.

I kind of enjoy laughing at all the sheep that dress exactly like their paid for friends and cruise around in their mom's old Tahoe.

Again, misinformed and envious. So typical
Med school folks pay social "dues". It must suck to pay for friends in that field too.

Why so sensitive? Don't like having your superficial life choices made fun of?
