More than two months after George Floyd's death sparked nationwide protests, unexpected consequences have arisen at some leading universities: Students are leaving their fraternities and sororities over what they perceive as a lack of sensitivity on issues of race, sexism, classism, homophobia and other issues of discrimination or inequality.

Geezz..you freakin' joined a Greek not a "social justice" organization.

Would you like some Wokeness with your alcohol and sex....

[EEGator]

What a bunch of fags.

[mrsmith]

Just checked in to see what organization was so desperate as to ‘report’ this.
NBC... no surprise.

Liberals are destroying Nashville

Denmark used to have vikings.
America used to have settlers.

Both country’s societies have devolved largely into ignorant, weak, emotional and easily offended adult children.

Because of ‘progressives’ and easy living.

Equality - what does it mean? Equal outcomes is not equality but socialism.

Does this mean Otis Day and the Knights won't be playing Friday night?

No!

White kids are leaving because any public record of their being in a frat or sorority will become an indelible blemish on their character when they apply for jobs, start a business, or seek political office.

Typical Miserable Lefty wing loser reporter at the local National Barack Channel who hates Frats finds a few fellow
morons at a college and cooks up a
overblown story.

This garbage is packaged as News ?

Man, I’m really dumb. Here I was thinking that students are leaving their fraternities and sororities because college campuses have been shut down and students sent to live at home.

Just SHOUT!

At a college in a time long ago. The kids had to live in dorms for 2 years. Or they could live in a dorm for 1 year and in a frat or sorority for 1year. A lot of the girls hated the sorority life and moved out as quickly as possible. What if they are using a protest against racism as an excuse to leave the sorority house before the full year is over? Has a girl ever chosen to be a public relations actress to duck out of a situation.? Just conjecture of course.

[The_Media_never_lie]

My gosh, fraternities and sororities are by their nature exclusive and insensitive. Why even have them, then?

Proud member of ΓΔΙ here.

I wonder if the statue of Emil Faber has been torn down yet.

There’s something wrong with “racism”? It’s a religion? I thought this was a region on the globe governed such that an inhabitant can think whatever he/she wants and suffer whatever consequences one’s personal viewpoint invites.

[FrdmLvr]

Are the black fraternities and sororities also losing members due to racism and lack of diversity?

[peggybac]

Total freaking setup. Don’t get involved with all the hype of BLM, they’ll come after you. I’m so sick of all these wussies coming after the Greek system in schools - if you don’t like them, don’t join. Just leave us all alone.
