Sorority Girls Try to Quash Hazing Story and Make It Way Worse
You know how it’s really hard to let people say terrible horrible no good things about you but sometimes it’s better to just be quiet than say anything because saying things can be worse? Yeah, members of the Rho Theta chapter of Phi Mu at Elmhurst College didn’t get that memo: they decided to try and take care of a story about hazing in their sorority, but they ended up drawing even more attention to it.
On Tuesday, Elmhurst’s student paper The Leader published a piece that included details from a leaked sorority email about how Rho Theta was being investigated for hazing by nationals. “THIS DOES NOT GET OUT TO THE PHIS,” Rho Theta’s president wrote to an unidentified individual (or individuals) within the sorority. “I am 100% serious, for I hope that this is a misunderstanding. This also does not get out to ANYONE else on campus. This stays between us and only us.”
