This is nothing new. First off, I attended the Association of Fraternity/Sorority Advisors (AFA) last week in Nashville, TN. and I will tell you that almost all the private schools with Greek Life have that same requirements for Freshman and even a few state schools as well. Going forward, the push is to have about 85% of the schools (both private and public) adopt similar requirements for freshmen requesting to go Greek. Secondly, with all the crap that is going on with Greeks this semester (rape crimes, pledge deaths, conduct violations, etc.) Greek leaders will be cracking down on every Greek Org. that violates University polices that could result in long range suspension and/ or expulsion from the University and they will not care how long a Greek org. has been on campus or what type of prominant Alumni graduated from the school. The attitude is that every Greek Org. that violates policies, can be replaced with another Greek Org. BTW, The NIC supports the requirements as well and if your national Org disagrees, then maybe they need to relook at their total chapters and say to themselves, is all our chapters above or below standards of both the National and University. This is not going away anything soon. What IFC and Stu are doing is protecting our Greek Life at F & M to make is safe for all students to join. I personally would not want a guy(s) in my fraternity that 1) can't hold a 2.5 GPA, 2) not in good standing with the school 3) is nothing more that a problem.
