Kappa Gamma subsection removal

Latest comment: 11 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The subsection discussing the Kappa Gamma controversy was removed at some point in 2023 over

"This is not a relevant section and there are plenty of other atrocities committed by other Greek organizations. The author of this article singled out Kappa Gamma, clearly out of personal vendetta"

Due to its coverage herein the Washington Post a well as here I believe it is still noteworthy enough to include from a neutral perspective while not singling out any individuals directly involved. Thoughts? Kachow03 (talk) 19:54, 8 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

Frequent edit-warring over non-notable individual in alumni list

Latest comment: 2 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

For anyone who may need to hear this, you should not be adding non-notable individuals (be they yourself or others) to this article's list of alumni. You should also seek consensus here on the article talk page when you are aware that an edit is in dispute. Continually re-attempting the same disputed edit without first building consensus is considered edit warring, a form of disruptive editing that may eventually result in a temporary or permanent editing ban.
