This warms my heart. Both the situation itself and the well-handled article.

ikr! no pronoun fail and no randomly giving out his birth name, I'm stunned

Also saying he "[came] out as transgender" instead of "became a man" or any other bullshit like that

A+ job, article!

ikr ? it was written by a member of the frat mentioned, so i was wary at first that the author might stumble a bit but i ended up pleasantly surprised

I'm shocked....but for once in a good way. Donated as well.

OT - Chip-in is closing down?

moonshaz February 27 2013, 19:48:41 UTC

From the Chipin website:

"This is to notify all users of Chipin.com website ("Website") that ChipIn Inc. has been merged with InMobi Technologies Pvt. Ltd (collectively referred to as "Company"). We further wish to notify that InMobi has decided to discontinue the Website and all services thereunder on March 7, 2013 ("End Date")."

The above is an excerpt from a longer letter, all of which can be read here.

This is making me ridiculously happy, cos it's been one of the days. :D

Such a great contrast to the other story from that other college I shall not name right now.

Well done gentlemen, may you be an inspiration to others.

I've been pout of the loop sick for the past couple of days, what was the other story?

TW:R*pe paksenarrion2 February 28 2013, 08:03:18 UTC

UNC decides to charge Landen Gambill with an honor code violation saying it was disruptive or intimidating behavior even though she did not name her alleged attacker. Not necessarily frat related but college related.

Oh wow...... I'm seriously at a loss for words. This is fucking disgusting =(
