Very good article Stogie... To me it is so sad that this type of behavior continues.

Outstanding article. There need to be more of those.  A lot more.

I attended classes at two different college campuses, and worked at another.  In my experience, every frat/sorority has its own stereotype, and that stereotype generally holds true no matter which campus you're on. 

As an example, UT took a serious PR beating over the whole "butt-chugging" incident.  But as far as I'm concerned, that wasn't a UT thing, that was a Pike thing.  Walk into any Pike house on any campus in America on a Saturday night, and you're likely to see idiotic shizzle like that going down.  UT's chapter was just stupid enough to get caught.

(And if there are any current/former Pikes on the board who would like to argue the point, I'd be happy to hear it.)

When I was at UT, the Pikes had a rep as the biggest #badword#s, basically.  They would do stupid shizzle like start food fights in the cafeteria that seemed more appropriate to junior high.


So...yeah.
