Baltimore Neighbors Speak Against Phi Kappa Psi

Neighbors Vow To Close Hopkins Frat

The neighbors of Johns Hopkins University's Phi Kappa Psi house want the students evicted. They said the brothers source of noise, trash, drunkenness, public urination, and other forms of normal fraternity behavior.

"The boys who run this place, some of them are very nice, respectable, considerate and highly productive people," said neighborhood president Carl Hyman. "But there's no place on Earth where 30 18- to 20-year-old boys can go unsupervised and not get into trouble."

"There's no naked people, there's no debauchery," Phi Psi president J.R. Yarbrough said. Only three frats at Johns Hopkins still have a house to call their own, and the Phi Psi brothers say they don't plan on giving theirs up.
