A few years ago the students of Rutgers were noted chanting “F@ck Navy, F@ck Navy” at a game on their campus. Attempts to arouse any sense of shame or impropriety amongst the “youts” of Rutgers were met with derision and defiance.

Later that same year Don Imus (whose language is often on the same level) was fired for referring to one of the women's teams as “Nappy headed hos”.

I guess the student bodies these days think one should be fired for criticizing their hair styles.

I would like to see a return to polite society, but to get there the student body is going to have to start by admitting that the problem is not one fraternity, but the entire student body. And it is not just the males either.

"But you can't hold a whole fraternity responsible for the behavior of a few, sick twisted individuals. For if you do, then shouldn't we blame the whole fraternity system? And if the whole fraternity system is guilty, then isn't this an indictment of our educational institutions in general? I put it to you, Greg - isn't this an indictment of our entire American society? Well, you can do whatever you want to us, but we're not going to sit here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America. Gentlemen!"
