Fraternity Houses are Models of Cleanliness
Shaun Richardson | Resident Spell-Checker
I am writing on behalf of a group of unsung heroes here at RU, who have
recently been the victims of one of the greatest travesties in Radford
City's history. If you guessed that I am talking about the shut out of
RU's Greek fraternities from the Garden Club's annual awards roster, then
you are right on target.
No one realizes the work that goes into the landscaping and lawn grooming
at RU's frat houses. Apparently, there is a commonly held misconception
that beer cans, broken bottles, and empty plastic cups just land on the
ground with no planning at all. People must think that careful replacement
of all grass at fraternity houses with sludge is some sort of natural
process, as if no effort at all is put forth. Don't even get me started
about the way the people of Radford City, the Garden Club in particular,
just ignore the broken-furniture and old, dirty mattress artwork that
graces the lawns of RU's frat houses.
This sort of discrimination is outrageous and is a blatant example of
Greekophobia. I mean, Greek frats have just about as great a chance of
winning a Garden Club award as members of the student media have of winning
an outstanding student award. As a campus, we must band together, both
Greeks and non-Greeks, to fight the injustice of the Garden Club of Radford
city. Together, we can see to it that the misunderstood beauty of RU's
frat houses gets noticed.

Not to be too evil, but what about all these Frat houses (and yes I've going to call it a FRAT because I know you Greeks hate it) that keep gettin catching on fire? Honestly I'm sure that after the fire the houses are the cleanest they've been in years. Burned up all the trash, pee and puke stains, cups, and sludge that had been collecting. And to think the pledges didn't have to lift a finger.
Brother1: Uhhh, $^#8 clean the !@$# house and drink a #&@^ beer you )(!& pledge. Huh huh, yeah and then...yeah.
Pledge: Can't, it's burnt up.
Brother1: Oh, yeah...well, do it anyway. And drink. Yeah, uh... O'doyle rules!
