Frat Boy News Exclusive:
The Unbelievable San Diego State Undie Run


Students at San Diego State University know how to get down on a school night.

Thursday morning at midnight, San Diego State students gathered for the first annual "Undie Run," just before the university's spring break starts next week.

Students were asked to show up in old clothes they could take off to donate to charity. They met at an intersection on the campus around midnight, and the festivities began. Kyle Kuhlmann, who worked to help organize the event, asked students to be safe and stick together.

"It's about rebelling against the system that gave you an 8 a.m. Midterm Friday morning. It's about feeling totally free and living the college lifestyle," said Kuhlmann on the Facebook group used to organize those attending. More than 600 students were confirmed guests in the group.

"Drop your pants, rip off your shirts and join the fun in the Underwear Run!"

Racial Slur Starts Sigma Pi Fight

Alledged Fight Prompts Investigation

The University of West Alabama was witness to a roving mob of fraternity guys last Sunday. It all started when a member of Sigma Pi fraternity used a racial in the direction of a black guest at their party. The guest then hit a member of the fraternity and left the building.

Several angry brothers were not far behind him. The incident occurred around 2 am.

The surly group found its way over to a dormitory parking lot, where they found Edmond Kelly, Jason Graham and two other, presumably black, students.

"As we were walking, a white guy ran up to us and said, 'which one of you guys cold-cocked my friend with a bottle?" said Edmond Kennedy a West Alabama student.

"Before I could even ask any questions or anything, by that time they had done bum rushed me, about 30 or 40 of them had done bum rushed me, my roommate and the other two guys", said Jason Graham.

All individuals involved with the assault could face suspension, pending an investigation. The fraternity lost its status as a recognized organization while the school conducts its investigation.

Both Graham and Kennedy claim they were not present at the Sigma Pi fraternity that night, and were not aware of the incident there, until after the ordeal was over, broken up by campus police.
