These past few weeks I have seen continuous negative coverage by the Alligator editorial board wantonly slamming whole groups of students, namely Greeks and SG, for mostly negligible offenses.
Heck, even in SG's case they did something, yet the Alligator felt it necessary to continue its mudslinging campaign. In the case of the Greeks, the councils took steps to help safeguard Homecoming, and the Alligator responded by writing what seemed like a fair editorial but ended in a tongue-in-cheek jab.
Yes, the Greeks and SG do fall short, but they fall short while aiming higher than all those around them. I applaud them for striving valiantly in the face of ridicule and criticism. However, I hope the Alligator editorial board rises to new heights and leaves this deplorable, immature smear campaign to lesser individuals.
