| Black fraternities excluded from alcohol ban at N.C. State |
| 2015-03-26 |
| [Wash Times] North Carolina State University's recent ban against alcohol consumption at fraternity events does not include the school's five historically black fraternities. The university announced the decision Friday to crack down on alcohol after a racially offensive pledge book allegedly belonging to a Pi Kappa Phi member was discovered at a local restaurant and separate allegations of drugs and sexual assault surfaced at Alpha Tau Omega, The Associated Press reported. A news release from university spokesman Fred Hartman said the school worked with the Interfraternity Council (IFC) to temporarily suspend social events that involve alcohol. Only problem is that the ban doesn't apply to the school's black fraternities, which are separately organized under the National Pan-Hellenic Council, The Daily Caller reported. |

| #10 Black fraternies excluded because clearly they saw the Greek Council as a bunch of idiots long before this happened and set up their own group. |

| #9 Where I went to college whites were allowed to join black fraternities but few wanted to because its a way different thing. Similar thing with white fraternities. They were open to blacks but few even tried to join (but of course the Whites were branded as racist for not having the appropriate numbers). I'd be curious to hear more about this racially offensive pledge book. Was it the book itself (in which case the national chapter has some explaining to do) or was it writting scribbled into the book (possibly by the person who found the book). Questions questions, but it seems the attack on fraternities continues. |

| #5 Because booze is the second-most important thing (after women) for college lads. |

| #3 Lots of guys formerly known as white might want to be pledging these black frats. White frats aren't allowed to ban black pledges over race, so black frats shouldn't be allowed to ban white pledges over race, right? |
