Yale Just Dicked Its SAE Chapter Because Of Comments Made A Year Ago By Graduated Members
Fraternities are comprised of college-aged males. College-aged males are comprised of alcohol and a ravenous sexual appetite. What the fuck do universities think these guys are going to discuss?
We aren’t quite sure of all the details, but it appears that SAE at Yale just went tip-to-tip with the girthy shaft of Yale’s administration and lost. A year after two members allegedly made sexually suggestive comments at a private initiation ceremony, the brothers learned they will close up shop until August 2016.
The really perplexing — and frightening — aspect of this situation comes in here: The two members who made the comments at the ceremony have since graduated. The ceremony also occurred in February 2014. That was a year ago. A full year, roughly 365 days later, and now the chapter is told it’s done. All of this over words spoken at a private event. No actions resulted from the comments. Nothing but a few “inappropriate comments.”
From Yahoo:
The incident occurred at a private chapter event when two members made “inappropriate comments” about a female student, Brandon Weghorst, an SAE spokesman, said by e-mail.
The precedent has been set. A verbal utterance at a private event sent these guys packing. Are GroupMe conversations next? Those surely aren’t clean. Might as well wipe that Facebook as well.
Even the SAE national president was shocked to hear that Yale was giving his guys the boot a year after the incident.
“I was surprised at the university coming in a year later” with the ban on SAE, said Cohen, who helped establish the Yale chapter in the late 1980s. The students who made the comments have graduated, he said.
We’ll probably never know the exact words spoken during the event. The fear still exists, though. The chapters following spring break and formal just got a lot less interesting.
To all the stories that were aborted before they ever saw the light of day as a result of this ruling, rest in peace..

I’d hate to get dicked by Yale, they have a rather sizable endowment
11 years ago at 10:08 amI’m not really concerned with oppressive school administrations or the “pussification of America.” Correct me if I’m wrong, but I doubt that Yale is running NSA style surveillance of their fraternities. So that means some asshat within the organization went public with the “inappropriate comment” and got his entire house fucked, and that pisses me off a lot more. House business is house business.
11 years ago at 10:10 amShould have had the pledges make cupcakes or a banner to apologize to the girl…
11 years ago at 10:15 amoh wait.
imagine if one day this applies to all fraternities
11 years ago at 10:20 amUniversities are really starting to abuse their power and reach when it comes to fucking Greek life over. For every 1 small incident I bet there’s 10+ but non Greeks at universities.
11 years ago at 10:46 amFuck I mean by*
11 years ago at 10:47 am20 Christians get beheaded in Egypt. Liberals and Obama are no where to be found. But God forbid a white fraternity member said something inappropriate. Liberals might be the most retarded people on the planet.
11 years ago at 10:49 amThis might be a long shot, but maybe you should read the news sometimes champ.
11 years ago at 11:16 amInb4 news/knowing anything about the world is for liberal pussies
I’m not sure what a private university’s administration disciplining a fraternity has to do with US foreign policy in regards to ISIS atrocities, but you said liberals are retarded so I’ll allow it.
11 years ago at 1:00 pmThe real problem here is that one of the brothers repeated the comment to someone outside of the meeting. I think frats need to do what Sons of Anarchy does during meetings. Zero cell phones.
11 years ago at 10:50 amOr just have some common fucking sense and don’t talk about private fraternity matters outside of chapter/ritual.. But that’s just me.
11 years ago at 10:58 amThey got suspended for words… Spoken a year ago… By brothers who have since graduated… What the fuck is that? I can’t even begin to process what these Yale admins were thinking when they made this decision.
11 years ago at 10:51 amBet it would’ve been overlooked if it were Skull & Bones
11 years ago at 10:59 amI am an alumnus to greek life and have never understood why we allow universities to dictate over the greek system. They are a third party that has no say. You can still have meetings, through parties, and hang out with brothers last I checked the U.S. constitution. The only issue I see in these situations is greek life is backing down to bullies like little bitches. Grow some balls!!!!!!!
