Delta Sigma Phi Decides to Shake it Off

So, the Beta Mu chapter at Kentucky's Transylvania University made a little video.


Fraternity's Lip Dub To 'Shake It Off' Is Both Weird And Charming

"There have been some amazing lip dubs to Taylor Swift's "Shake It Off," but this one gets the award for most oddly charming.

In the video above, the fraternity brothers of Delta Sigma Phi Beta Mu at Kentucky's Transylvania University demonstrate some adorably dorky dance moves while lip-syncing to T-Swift's popular tune.

What's great about this video -- filmed in one long take -- is that the guys seem truly into it, and the video is pleasantly devoid of any real debauchery.

Transylvania requires students to live on campus, but there is one dorm area for fraternities, by hall, so the crest on the wall is probably an *expected* painting by the housing office.

"Debauchery" in the video appears limited to the fact that there is "gambling", there are "red cups" at that table and that that at 3:17 in the background there is a poster with women apparently in swimsuits.

*Maybe* the dean of housing would have an issue with riding a "razor" in the halls, but that's not debauchery...

So... you're agreeing with NP?

I didn't write the above. It's all from the article.

I'm agreeing with the Article. Even if you look at this from the most PITA Dean of Housing/Dean of Students, there isn't much to complain about. School Newspaper covered it. Most negative was that "Total Frat Move" listed it as a Friday Fail.

Don't know about anyone else, but I'd trade positive Nationwide attention for something done to grab attention for a philanthropy (The whole thing was a stunt to drive people to their fundraising page for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Light The Night Walk fund.) and Taylor Swift Concert tickets for a dis from "Total Frat Move".
