www.nbc29.com/story/27841233/fraternities-refusing-to-sign-on-to-new-uva-rules The above link is in regards to both ATO and KA fraternities refusing to sign the new University rules for all Greeks. The article states......Two fraternities are standing up to the University of Virginia, saying they won't play by new rules. Kappa Alpha Order and Alpha Tau Omega have harsh words for UVA leaders. Both fraternities released statements on Tuesday, citing reasons why they won't sign on with new guidelines UVA is mandating for Greek organizations. Alpha Tau Omega and Kappa Alpha Order say the university violated the original fraternity operating agreement (FOA), going as far as accusing UVA of strong-arming fraternities by suspending them. Both fraternities also say the new agreement creates unique legal burdens on students. The agreements were developed by student groups and would require that parties not serve pre-mixed drinks or punches, beer to only be served from unopened cans, wine poured by a sober brother, and security at the doors. Phi Kappa Psi - the fraternity called into question in the Rolling Stone magazine article which started all of this - has signed the new agreement with UVA as well as a few other fraternities. This is very interesting. What does ATO and KA have to hide that both refues to sign the agreeement?
