One year ago, Congress defunded public media. Now that we're 100% community funded, please become a sustaining member or increase your existing membership today.

USC's Greek system is facing social probation for the second time this school year after a series of recent mischievous events including racy emails and rooftop sex on campus.USC's Vice President of Student Affairs, Michael Jackson, set up a task force Thursday night, including members of the administration and the Greek community to work past all of the negative attention, according to the Daily Trojan.

Jackson also prohibited frat or sorority parties on Tuesday or Thursday nights for the rest of spring semester. Social dinners (B&B's) were also banned, leaving only Friday and Saturday nights authorized for legitimate Frat row mayhem.

One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere.
