Exerpt from The New Hampshire Oct. 3 2008

Durham, NH - The Sigma Beta fraternity has been suspended and nine of its members arrested following a drug raid by multiple New Hampshire law enforcement agencies on Tuesday evening.The raid, which took place between the hours of 7 p.m. Tuesday and 2 a.m. Wednesday, netted a significant amount of illegal drugs, according to Durham Deputy Police Chief Rene Kelley. The drugs included marijuana, Ecstasy, oxycodine, psychedelic mushrooms and other unidentified prescription drugs as well as assorted drug paraphernalia.

I've been reading some of the editorial comments off of tnhonline.com and am overwhelmed by the amount of support for the Beta brothers caught in this raid. Most are disturbed by the tactics used by the Durham police in their "unwarranted" raid ... which is a falsity according to TNH spoken of later in the article.
I have to think, it's about time. Cripe, every student knows about Sigma Beta and their propensity to endulge in any drug grown or sold. It's a sad situation to have to hear about, but the precedent was ovedue. It's a overcast on the University, one that I don't want a potential employer, family member, prospective students, or fellow alumni to have to read about.
Greek life at UNH, and many other institutions, need to clean up quickly and implement some method to hold themselves accountable. Good to know that my alma mater will now share drug use with its infamy of the 2003 winter riot.
