of truth-hiders:
Scott Nulty, vice president for community outreach of the Interfraternity Council, sent an email to fraternity presidents and requested they forward it to their chapter listserves, according to the email.
"We have gotten some questions regarding media outlets reaching out to fraternity members to comment on the Kappa Delta Rho situation," the email reads. "If this happens to any of you, please refrain from giving a statement and forward the request to a member of the Interfraternity Council."
Telling frat and sorority members to say "no comment" when asked by the media about the kdr case is just stupid, and guaranteed to make ALL Greek orgs seem like they are guilty of something.
I would be fine if they said "Be sure to treat these allegations as unproven at this time. Much better to say 'If this is true, then...yadda yadda yadda."
Just saying "no Comment" makes you just like the defendants. Sheesh.
BTW you know what week this is at PSU? WOMEN'S EMPOWERMENT WEEK!
How is "No comment" empowering?
