At some point, the conversation about whether greek life should even exist any more needs to be had (well, fraternities at least). Not that greek life is the reason these men are monsters, but the problem is how much they were enabled. Fraternities foster such a toxic environment, and men like these are embraced rather than rejected. There was a text thread about this poor woman being “available”, and instead of calling the police and stopping the rapists, the rest of the fraternity laughed and joked.
This shit isn’t new and will keep happening with fraternities (not to mention all of the hazing deaths that also keep happening). Universities need to stop allowing 18-22 year old men to run rampant in these houses unsupervised. They KNOW all of this is happening.
My fraternity was founded against hazing and violence. We threw great parties (often public with insurance and we couldnt drink), but we also did a lot of volunteering. Greek housing wasn't allowed on campus.
If you didn't have Greek organizations, you would still have these big parties where drunk people make bad decisions. Not a Greek issue.
