Biased Reporting Fails to Mention that 98.4% of Fraternity and Sorority Chapter Do Things Right!

6/12/2015

PictureLittle does this newsboy know that Bloomberg Business is peddling biased news!
Bloomberg Business recently reported that in the past spring semester, 133 fraternity or sorority chapters [2.6% of all Greek Organizations] at 55 U.S. colleges [2.4% of all colleges in the U.S.] were shut down, suspended or otherwise punished for various infractions. 

While the article, published on June 4, 2015, provided an interesting graphic and timeline, what it failed to put in perspective is that there are more than 8,500 fraternity and sorority chapters on American college campuses . No doubt some of the misconduct was serious, but the overwhelming majority [98.4%] of fraternities and sororities chapters do things right. Unfortunately, they get overlooked.
