In response to Long Island's Hofstra University sorority scandal, in which 19-year-old Courtney Holt said she was brutally hazed (the Phi Epsilon sorority responded that she was a mean drunk), a Hofstra alumn has written in. Surprise: the sorority is def evil, she says, and those girls are just as horrible as you might have imagined. "Although this Holt girl def seems like a psycho, a lot of the other information that she states is true... For one being Branded... yes they're branded with a three pronged fork to represent their three values (which is why they have a effing cow as a sorority symbol, and they always say 'love x3')."

Hello I am an alumni of Hofstra

My former friend pledged phi ep. b/c I had no interest in buying my friends in greek life. These girls were always mean to me simply b/c I wasn't greek. I have no problem validating this story

Although this Holt girl def seems like a psycho, a lot of the other information that she states is true.

For one being Branded... yes they're branded with a three pronged fork to represent their three values (which is why they have a effing cow as a sorority symbol, and they always say "love x3 )

Also this "Sister Dinner" they state in their letter left my friend traumatized during pledging. They made the pledge prepare a nice decorated beautiful dinner then basically threw the whole thing in their face and had a horrible pledge event.

I am not sure if anyone else can validate this but I heard they also have to dig their graves the first night of pledging. Then later on they are placed in a coffin on hell night and "reborn as a phi ep"

Second these girls are vindictive and cruel they have always harassed depledges to make them transfer and not tell their secrets. Phi Ep is a local sorority so they don't have to answer to anyone but themselves. they are out of control and I hope Hofstra kicks them off for good.

So funny their sorority is "respect" when clearly they lack it
