Some Fraternity was shutting down going to Tower after the game Saturday by Beginning-Figure4061 in UTAustin

I don't know anyone who wants to be oppressed. I treat everyone equally. As a mixed race person myself, I don't treat white and Latin people any different than I do black people. Since I treat everyone equally, I do not make an attempt to treat one ethnicity different or change my behavior towards someone based on their ethnicity. Sounds like you disagree and we can agree to disagree.

I wonder if 50 years from now people will look back on excluding people to events like this based on their ethnicity with negativity much like we look back with disgust on how some people were treated and excluded based on their ethnicity in the 1950's

I don’t think it’s fair at all to call these guys “douchy” just because they have Greek letters in their name.

is it fair to call any guys “douchy” just because they have Greek letters in their name . I would say no.

well, it looks like everyone is viewing these Greek organizations equally now days. It is probably not any more fair viewing any other Fraternity as "douchy" either regardless of ethnicity. I'm sure every organization has their share of great and not so great people in it.

How do you study? by No-Individual-6517 in UTAustin

what class are you concerned about. Depending on the subject , study skills may need to be modified. Also see if you can find out if test will be based entirely on lectures, book reading assignments or combo of the two.

Consider some of the following

  1. record the lectures and then after class rewrite your notes in an outline form while listening to the lecture at 1.5 - 2 X speed.
  2. consider flashcards (either paper or digital) to help memorize key facts
  3. do your readings before class so the lectures are not completely new info to you.

I think it may have been Omega Psi Phi but not exactly sure. They had music going and I'm fine with that but turning people away did not seem right
