It's funny that you believe that. You may want to work on your messaging because no one believes that.

Is that what you said to Grant Fleming's dad before you tried to fight our players, or was it something less vulgar? Mr. Morality is slipping again...

Buddy, if this was a circle jerk, you'd be standing in the middle.

Dean Lindsay and Perez are everything that's wrong with UL's student life and Greek life system. Over the years they have made decisions that have hamstrung UL's Greek Life, particularly the fraternities constantly.

Dean Lindsay to start things off got kicked out of Miss State Greek Life after the Miss State Greek Alums ran her off because she was destroying their Greek Life. That is who we are dealing with first and foremost. Why UL thought it was a good idea to hire her to run student life and oversee Greek Life in a way is beyond me, but that is Martin Hall at its finest.

I am also not sure why everyone is so shocked at why we keep having issues on a constant basis with these two. The issue is a clear culture difference. Everyone has to realize that the inner workings, administration, of universities are extremely left leaning and liberal. Fraternities are the exact opposite of that. When you have one side creating the policies for the other and their cultures are so wildly different you will get the issues we have today.

They have been bad in the past with fraternities, but I believe 2017 is where they got their chance to really crack down on fraternities as a whole. In 2017 Max Gruver died at LSU, which was horrific and terrible. This happened on a Thursday and on Monday they called a "Student Leader Meeting" to discuss the events over the weekend with us. You were better off calling this a "Bash UL Frats Meeting"

They spent the entire meeting publicly bashing fraternities, telling the sorority girls to go to our houses for events / parties and report back to them everything they saw. They even publicly said at this meeting this also goes for the NPHC's organizations which are the African-American frats / sororities. I recall their members openly laughing after the meeting at the fact they said this because they knew they can't police them whatsoever.

The result of this meeting? 5 / 10 of the frats on campus were suspended the very next week. Students pay to join these organizations for a variety of reasons, but the most fun and main aspects are to participate in tailgating / homecoming. When you suspend half the organizations and drag your feet for a month to "investigate" you will get some frustration because they interfered with us participating in those events. Social? Gone! Bus Trip? Gone! Tailgates? Gone! Semi-Formal? Gone! All while they "investigate".

Covid got them off the hook a little bit with people forgetting about them, but my God these people are DESTROYING Greek Life at UL. It is something every single year. I am doing nothing, but pointing out the obvious as well. I am glad this is finally coming to peoples' attention about how bad they are at their jobs of helping grow Greek Life which should entirely be the point of their job.

So now everyone's seen who is causing the issues. It also points out how it was handled at Miss State. Take a page from their playbook and do the same. Where's the Greek Alums that will go to Martin Hall and do something? I've said it before, until the money people speak up nothing will change. Since apparently the money people either are dying or don't care, the Greek Alums should step up to the plate.

Thinking of possible solutions is being LOST? Take your personal feelings out of it and think clearly. Or just keep drinking in your basement talking to a computer screen.

So in your way of explaining things..

When you tried to fight the football team, should they have whipped your ass and moved on? You know, got tired of being yelled at by a grown jackass in the stands and did something about it? That would be a solution, would it not?

OR, maybe you should have kept your mouth shut and not caused the problem to begin with?

We will have to agree to disagree on this one.

So you're saying the University doesn't support academics? Or are you saying their main focus should be athletics?

They probably threw in "And Mask are required in the student tailgating area"

They should support the students academics and supporting of sporting events. Basically stop trying to ____ with the students, they are needed at every sporting event. UL trys to run them off.

. . . we can add this one to the jerk(ing) room . . .

How do you propose fixing this? We can b-tch and moan all day long but until people go to Martin Hall nothing will change. Of course when I propose this, it's apparently bowing down to MH.

. . . if you don't think this thread is open on every phone at MH this morning, I have ocean front property north of Lafayette to sell you . . .
