As Executive Vice President and a Judicial Board member of the InterFraternity Council, I have become acutely aware of some of the misconceptions associated with Greeks or Greek Row that were/are regularly expressed by the typical college student. I thought...

This is in response to the Nov. 29 letter, "Racial incident." The writer of that letter obviously was referring to the Greek Row incident. You were wondering why people put so much focus on that incident and not on yours (when the roles were reversed)....

As a former NIU football player, I am always keeping track of the Huskie football team. First, I'd like to say congratulations to Coach Pettibone and all the Huskies for a fine season—you guys really are something! I was, however, disappointed to see...
