According to a story by Sam Dillon in the New York Times, national
officers of the Delta Zeta (DZ) sorority decided to “reorganize” its
chapter at DePauw University by forcing 23 of its 35 members to vacate
the house. Among the 23 were all of the sorority’s overweight members,
as well as all three of sorority’s racial minority members. The twelve
members left standing all fit the common sorority stereotype—trim,
pretty, and White. Apparently six of these remaining women were so
infuriated by the move that they quit anyway.
