<p>My “sources” are not limited to student newspapers, even though plenty of information about this stuff can be found within those. The most basic of searches led to articles in Citizen Crime Watch,org, Nola.com, WCBSTV.com, and so on. What adjective would you suggest using to describe “pouring gasoline containers filled with boiling water on pledges backs and private parts”? I used the word “revolting”; indeed, the National Fraternity Organization called it “nothing short of reprehensible” in revoking the charter. The focus should be on the seriousness of the actions and why members of this fraternity were not firmly sanctioned in past years and this time expelled, not the adjectives someone uses to describe the behavior.</p>
<p>For the last time, the OP asked if his/her “parents should be concerned”. This was the question posed. Thank you for your conern that our son choose a school that is right for him, not me, but neither he nor his sister are going anywhere on our dollar if we have a justifiable reason to be concerned about how basic safety issues are being handled by an administration.</p>
