Brown University ‘Queer Alliance’ Party Puts 20 Students in the Hospital
An incident from November 12 2005 at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. During Brown’s annual Sex Power God party (put on by Brown’s Queer Alliance Club), local emergency medical services received a record number of calls due to binge drinking and drug overdoses. According to the Brown Daily Herald, the number of calls increased significantly from past years.
Fox News producer Jesse Watters infiltrated the mass orgy and recorded segments of the party, which aired on Fox’s Monday night show, The O’Reilly Factor. The Brown Daily Herald reported “Between images of grinding in their underwear, producer Jesse Watters described the event as ‘pure debauchery.’…Watters said that he observed ‘guys kissing guys and girls making out with girls.’”
The event prompted David Greene, Brown University’s vice president for campus life and student services, to write an e-mail to the entire student body, noting that the weekend’s activities had prompted an investigation into the college’s student activity policies.
“Brown has come a long way since its founding in 1764 as Rhode Island College by two Christian clergymen,” said Knight. “The university has done such a thorough job of eradicating its Christian past that events like the Sex Power God party fit right in with Brown’s current fundamentalist creed of moral relativism.”

Dartmouth Closes Zeta Psi Fraternity
Press Release - May 11, 2001
Hanover, N.H. -- Dartmouth College officials today notified the Zeta Psi fraternity at Dartmouth that the organization has permanently lost its recognition by the College. The decision means that the fraternity will cease to exist at Dartmouth.

Zeta Psi Frat members had been producing an in-house magazine (later claimed, in a starling misunderstanding of the nature of satire, as "satirical") which featured the imaginary sexual exploits, names and photographs of specific Dartmouth undergraduate women. The magazine promised in it's next issue a list of "patented date rape techniques".

Dartmouth President James Wright said, "Zeta Psi undermined fundamental values we hold dear. When such conduct violates our standards, the College must take action."

The Great Ivy League Nude Photo Scandal

Yale University, in the late 1970's. An employee opens a long-locked room in the Payne Whitney Gymnasium and finds...an enormous cache of nude photographs of young men in front, side and rear poses with a row of sharp metal pins sticking into them.

In October 2006, readers of the Harvard Crimson noticed "similarities" between the work of political cartoonist Kathleen Breeden and work collected on Daryl Cagle's Professional Cartoonists Index. Breeden was fired, and fellow students rushed to denounce her as "Kaavyarific".

This cryptic insult was coined in the defining Ivy-League scandal of the 00's, when Harvard undergraduate Kaavya Viswanathan's novel, How Opal Mehta Got Kissed, Got Wild and Got a Life, (which was about to be published by Little, Brown) was seen to be startling similar too Megan McCafferty's teen stories Sloppy Firsts and Second Helpings. A media frenzy (it must have been a quiet month) revealed that Viswanathan drew on everything from The Princess Diaries to Salman Rushdie's Haroun and the Sea of Stories. The novel was withdrawn, a DreamWorks film deal cancelled, and Kaavya fled to an internship in Africa.

Later in the same year Aleksey Vayner became the "new Kaavya" when he despatched UBS a video resumé of such fantastical content as to beggar belief. Vayner, an Uzbek Yale undergraduate looking for an entry-level position on Wall Street, included on his resume stints as CEO of an investment firm, a career as a professional athlete, and the authorship of Women's Silent Tears, a "unique gender-focused perspective on the holocaust in eastern Europe". He also claimed to be "one of four persons in the state of Connecticut licensed to handle nuclear waste". When it was posted on YouTube, Vayner became the victim of global derision.

A Cappella Attack

On Jan. 1, 2007, following his performance at a San Francisco party, Berkeley College junior Sharyar Aziz of the Baker’s Dozen a cappella group sustained a broken jaw in two places after being kicked and punched repeatedly by members of the audience. Felony charges against the alleged assailants were dropped. Attorney for the defence, Frank Passaglia, speaking when the lawsuit was first filed, called the altercation a “mutual combat situation fueled by alcohol.”
