If this is something that they didn't involve the alumnae in, that is all kinds of really not cool.
Don't disagree with the first part, recognized locals would clearly be better than underground locals; but W&L is a private school and thus has a lot of lane to basically ban local orgs.

My understanding is alumnae were not fully informed. So... that's crazy.

This article might help provide some context.

"Tear Night" is W&L's name for fraternity bid day...
