Attractiveness Incorrect?
Posted on March 14, 2007
The Delta Zeta sorority at the intolerant anti-Christian and anti-Republican DePauw university in Indiana was not flourishing. The chapter’s residence was known as the “Dog house”!
So the national leadership of the sorority decided on a shakeup and dismissed most of the members — leaving only the attractive ones. The ousted ones were said to be all overweight, black, Korean or Vietnamese. At a guess, they might have been all Democrat supporters as well. The national organization does deny that attractiveness was the criterion, though. I guess politeness requires that.
The university says that the whole thing was very bad and has now dismissed the sorority from the campus. You have to have the RIGHT KIND of intolerance at DePauw. Apparently atheistic Democrat uglies are what is celebrated there.
Why cannot a sorority choose its members on any basis it likes? It is a private club. Will young men on the campus eventually be required to date equal numbers of attractive and unattractive women? I am sure that the social engineers of the Left would just love to enforce that if they thought that they could get away with it.
Given their own abysmal record of intolerance, I think DePauw should say: “To err is human” and invite the sorority back. They were originally a Methodist university so someone there might even remember the parable of the lost sheep.
Details of the story here and here. DePauw has its say here.

The sorority HAD chosen its own members. Then NATIONALS came in and ejected all but 12 of the women. The week before finals. Six of the remaining 12 quit in protest. NATIONALS didn’t want the sorority to be able to choose its own members.
Even if DZ were invited back to campus, their name is mud. Only 3 women were successfully recruited in the most recent drive. No one wants to belong to a group where NATIONALS can kick you out over the protestations of the local chapter.
If there’s a conservative lesson to be learned here, it’s the dangers of a powerful centralized government, not whatever nonsense you are peddling, JonJay.
I was wondering where you read that the girls kicked out were Democrat or atheist. I am doing a report on this issue and would like to know where you got your facts so I can research them myself. Thanks!
did somebody hack this site? this is the most retarted thing i’ve read here.
The Delta Zeta house was once the fraternity house of Sigma Nu, a fraternity known as a fun loving “Animal House” and known for being pro-military and conservative in politics.
The best solution would be to turn the place back to the old Sigma Nu.
Delta Zeta has always been known as the “Dog House” at DePauw University. The only thing that has changed is its location. The house just doesn’t look right with Delta Zeta on the front. The old Sigma Nu would be good for what ails DePauw University. The old brothers would figure out wonderfully outrageous ways to mock the rampant political correctness on that campus.
Sigma Nu was founded at the Virginia Military Institute by three southern young Christian men for whom Confederate gray was revered. In deference to the founders, there were once the Rebel battle flags inside the walls of what was then the Sigma Nu house at DePauw. Somehow I think that current DePauw administration and the old Sigma Nu might not get along.
All this uproar and yet not a single member was actually
kicked out of the sorority. Amazing! The DePauw administration just wants to
steal the property and have let their own faculty criticize students
(remember, it was the DePauw faculty who surveyed the students and added
to the stereotypes, not the sorority leaders).
