Women's Marches

It's all good, Dewiz. I think most of us had a rather poor impression of the limo window smashing and so forth.

Any trouble in lincoln?

Are you old enough to remember the Fraternity vs GDI snowball fights from the 1980s? Those had WAY more action than this. As "riots" go this was exceedingly tame.

Ah. Yes, the Greek/GDI snow ball fights. Started off fairly innocent till kids started putting rocks in the snow balls.

 

I actually never partook in them since most of my time was spent on east campus.

I know the Abortion March wasn't exactly a "women's march" but we're talking about the Fiji stuff in here, so this march is probably as relevant to the topic.

 

It looks well-attended. I haven't seen any reports of riots or burned limos from this march.

 

 

It's good to see people being politically active. We've been pretty complacent as a people for a while. All Americans should make themselves more vocal.

UNL places Fiji on interim suspension.

“While behavior outside the fraternity during the Women’s March attracted public attention, our investigation has shown broader conduct issues at the fraternity,” said Juan N. Franco, vice chancellor for student affairs. “This conduct required our immediate action, even while our investigation continues."

 

The interim suspension includes the university’s immediate withdrawal of its recognition of Phi Gamma Delta, also known as Fiji, as a greek organization at Nebraska, as well as temporary revocation of the chapter’s affiliation with the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life.

Do the kids have to find new places to live?

Not sure, but that would suck for them.

When houses out here have lost their charters, the members were usually allowed to stay until the end of the lease on the building or until they graduate if owned by the chapter. Since it is an interim suspension, they are fine until end of the semester at least.

That is good.

That's kind of the best of all worlds isn't it? Living in the heart of campus - no rules, no dues, no meetings, no grade checks - cool digs.

[Landlord]

Yeah that seems like more of a perk than anything

[ZRod]

I think when they suspend the last fraternity they got to remain in the house for the remaining semester.

Did some people really want them to have their charter suspended and to be kicked off campus ASAP?
