IFC's chapter presidents voted last night to cancel all socials for the next two weeks, two days after Penn State administrators said that nine of 82 Greek organizations violated the new regulations over Parents Weekend.
Instead of offering resources for improvement, Penn State shattered the Greek system and left its members stranded and scrambling to pick up the pieces.

"We've completed our investigation and we know what happened in that house," Sims said. "We cannot sit back idly."
