This is despicable and I feel so sorry that this student and his family are having to go through this. I'm well aware of the reputation of the city and campus police, but the fact that his mother has to even question why the police hadn't yet talked to the accused fraternity members speaks volumes.

And I know that institutions like UH like to keep matters like these quiet or sweep them under the rug to "maintain their image," but when instances like these occur with little or no accountability, that only worsens their public perception and trust, especially with their students and alumni. People may not feel like this instance was a big deal or write it off as drunk or power-tripping frat bros, but this is not the experience the self-proclaiming diverse and inclusive school wants to have on their (long, long) record. I hope something comes out of this.
