You know what, it is simply amazing is that an alumni is being <BR>
scrutinized, when he himself can only be representative of only (a <BR>
fraction of a fraction of a vote) when it comes to voting on issues <BR>
in the fraternity. <BR>
<BR>
An undergraduate represents a fraction of the alotted two delegates.<BR>
As in if there are 10 people in the chapter. His representation is <BR>
one fifth of a vote.<BR>
<BR>
In the case of an alumni member, if he is in an alumni association <BR>
of 10 members, he would represent 1 tenth of that association. One <BR>
fraction. But then, if there is 10 associations in his region his <BR>
representation would be one tenth of on tenth. <BR>
<BR>
The point is even with that little of representation, and his life <BR>
membership his allegded actions will always have smaller weight than <BR>
that of an undergraduate. So it naturally if all is equal, there <BR>
will be no middle ground. It will always be in the best interest of <BR>
the Spirits and Standards to committee to believe and support <BR>
undergraduates. I just don't believe that it should ever come with <BR>
the consequence of suspending a single member unless there was <BR>
physical harm or a grave finanicial recourse. Neither of which was <BR>
evident in this case. <BR>
<BR>
From what I understand there was a visitation from an alumni to a <BR>
campus that he is not from, through the invitation of campus <BR>
alumni. Through conversation, somebody got their feelings hurt and <BR>
felt like reporting it to the national office. And because it was a <BR>
new group sanctioned by the national office, anything they needed <BR>
they would get including taking some form of action against an <BR>
alumni with life membership. <BR>
<BR>
To say that suspension was result of comparing hearsay, gives you <BR>
the newly developed extent to which a individual can be held <BR>
accountable. <BR>
