DePauw University severed its ties today with a national sorority that attracted controversy when it evicted two-thirds of its DePauw members late last year. The sorority called the evictions an effort to improve its image for recruitment, but the evicted women described it as a purge of the unattractive or uncool.
"We at DePauw do not like the way our students were treated," the president of the university, Robert G. Bottoms, said in a letter to the sorority, Delta Zeta. "We at DePauw believe that the values of our university and those of the national Delta Zeta sorority are incompatible."
