Dartmouth SAE, Famous For Hazing, Has Been Suspended By Nationals, Derecognized By University

Dartmouth SAE, made famous for hazing after a shitstain former member revealed what the chapter was doing behind closed doors (Rolling Stone did a story on him, for those unfamiliar with noted scumbag Andrew Lohse), has been given the boot by both SAE nationals and Dartmouth.

From The Dartmouth:

Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity has been suspended by its national organization for a minimum of five years for violations of health and safety regulations as well as a failure to comply with the national organization’s standards, according to a statement released by SAE national executive director of communications Brandon Weghorst. Members of the chapter at the College have also been suspended indefinitely from SAE national.

College spokesperson Diana Lawrence wrote in a statement to The Dartmouth that the suspension of SAE’s charter by its national organization derecognizes SAE as a student organization as of March 15, 2016, the end of winter term. As Dartmouth policy prohibits students from living in the building of an unrecognized student organization, SAE can no longer serve as a residential space beginning in Spring 2016.

It’s pretty obvious that the official reasoning behind the chapter’s suspension is utter malarkey. All that happened is that SAE got sick and tired of having a bunch of dudes out there hazing balls while wearing their letters. Pussies.

What the Dartmouth SAEs did wasn’t even that bad, though! I guess it’s against the rules to plan some aquatic activities for your pledges? Sure, the pool you have the pledges swimming in might, might, be filled with a combination of vomit, poop, pee, jizz, dip spit, and God knows what else, but those youngins wanted to do it. Go ahead, ask them.

Furthermore, apparently an easy way to get your nationals to give you the boot, if you want to follow Dartmouth SAE’s example, is to try and increase your pledges’ bone density by having them drink milk. That seriously got these guys in trouble. While I concede that they probably could’ve found a better chaser for the milk than vinegar, I just know that their hearts were in the right place. And what’s wrong with trying to give your pledges some protein in the form of an omelette??? Don’t pay attention to the fact that the omelette was filled with vomit (they called them vomlets), that wasn’t the focus here. All the SAEs wanted was for their pledges to experience explosive gains.

The world just got a little less hazey.

    “Yeah, we need a few guys to go blast their loads into the pool out back.”

      To be fair, every public pool in the US is at least 35% jizz. That’s not really even hazing.

    I don’t want to see it, but I’d love to know that Andrew Lohse used money from his “tell all” books to take a trip to Africa where he is raped and his insides pummeled by an elephant. Guy might be one of the biggest fucks Greek life has ever seen.

      Unfortunately our spineless administration actually allowed him to come back this year and finish up his degree. Sure, they couldn’t exactly expel him for being a whistleblower, but you’d think his arrests for cocaine and assaulting a police officer would be enough from barring him from coming back.

      He’s by far the most hated guy on campus.

    So the administration and nationals work together and take separate but complimentary actions. Nationals pulls the charter. The administration withdraws recognition, prohibits students from residing there (something a private school can do), and reports this all to the city. The city in turn withdraws the special zoning permit for a “fraternity” after a period of non-use, which will happen because the administration has adopted a plan (the President’s “Moving Dartmouth Forward”) that discourages recolonization. This devalues the property which allows the school to buy it (also in the school President’s plan) at a drastically cheaper price than it was worth before their action. The alumni corporation, which now has no way of renting it to generate income, faces foreclosure (if they have a mortgage) or bankruptcy … or a sale. According to SAE “Laws” – see 36(c) – the alumni board must transfer the proceeds of the sale to nationals. So it’s a big payday for both the administration and nationals that haven’t put their own money into the house, while the chapter’s brothers and alumni have their home and most fungible asset stolen. It’s a rigged game until we change it.

        Enjoy your dry, “safe space” theme dorm with RA at your school of Podiatry and Housekeeping.

      A little tin foil hat but shitty nonethless. That seems to be one of the most effective methods of strangling Greek life: yanking a charter for any reason and buying up the house before a recolonization can occur. Or forcing all frats on campus and setting them up to fail with ridiculous standards to meet to stay recognized.
