Miami University Had The Pukiest, Poopiest, Sexiest Spring Formal Ever

On April 9, 2010, Miami University's Pi Beta Phi fraternity for women held a spring formal at the quaint Lake Lyndsay Lodge in Hamilton, Ohio. The sloppy, slutty details of what transpired that boozy enchanted evening are tremendous.



The letter you see first was written by Lake Lyndsay operator, Lyndsay Rapier-Phipps, to the Dean's office at Miami University. In the last couple days, this letter popped up online. Phipps references Phi Delta Phi, but the featured sisters in this instance are actually Pi Beta Phi, better known as "Pi Phis". I contacted Phipps yesterday to confirm every completely ridiculous detail she states in the letter actually occurred. "Yes," she said. "You're like the 14th person who's called me today."



Like most bus rides to fraternity formals, the guys and gals pounded Natty Lights and other booze most of the way there and were completely obliterated before they even stepped foot inside Lake Lyndsay, which is about 20-30 minutes away from Miami University's campus. Phipps said the damages both inside and outside the palatial lake area lodge (which was hosting a non-alcoholic wedding at 8 a.m. the next morning) were not the most disturbing part of the evening, but more "the overall behavior of the students." As you can tell from the detailed description in her letter, both male and female attendees went completely nuts: puking on themselves, breaking crystal vases, decapitating stone lion statues, urinating in sinks, pooping on the side of the building, screwing in the caterer closet, boinking in the beach house. "They were out of control," Phipps said.



Even though Phipps threatens in the letter to go to the local papers with this incident, she never did. She's still unaware how her letter popped up online but she doesn't seem to worried about putting this story out there, even though both she and her husband are proud Miami University alums.


The end result of all this? Well the national Zeta sisters ain't happy: From the formal news release:

"The Ohio Zeta Chapter of Pi Beta Phi was founded in 1945 with more than 1,900 proud Pi Beta Phi alumnae. "The alumnae join Fraternity leadership in expressing great disappointment in the decisions of a few chapter members who have completely disregarded the values in which Pi Beta Phi was founded," Grand President Mary Loy Tatum said. "They have placed their chapter in jeopardy with Miami University and Pi Beta Phi."

Not surprisingly, as you'll see in the news release on their site, the Ohio Zeta chapter was suspended for one year due to their behavior at the formal in an attempt to "change the culture" of their historic fraternity for value-focused women. Good luck with that.

A long time ago, women were not allowed to congregate and fraternize. Then they were, and they established their own fraternities. Eventually, somebody realized that frat while in latin, frat as brother is same as using man (mankind, manhole, etc) as a generic term, it would be proper to use the term sorority.

My wife, for example, is alum of the Phi Mu Fraternity, not Sorority.

Exactly. My sorority was also chartered as a fraternity. Most were, in those days.

In fact, the only sorority chartered as such in the original National Panhellenic Council is Alpha Chi Omega.

My God...that is absolutely disgusting! I'm in college and I haven't done any s**t like dis! Where I live in B.C, Canada, we don't use the Greek system. Yeah, college kids can get a little wild...but I've never seen the likes of this. Shows you can't act as adults, even though you have enough intelligence to get into college in the first place. disbelief

Miami University president 'appalled' by sorority parties gone wild

By Sheila McLaughlin • smclaughlin@enquirer.com • May 12, 2010


OXFORD - Miami University President David Hodge has called for changes in policies and standards of Greek organizations after two sorority formals turned into drunken puke fests.

Details of the second destructive incident - involving Alpha Xi Delta's affair at the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center on March 26 - came out Wednesday, a day after university officials suspended Pi Delta Phi's Ohio Zeta Chapter for similar behavior at Lake Lyndsay Lodge in Butler County.

Pi Delta Phi received a one-year suspension from campus activities, but university officials recommended a tougher two-year suspension for Alpha Xi Delta. The sorority is appealing that recommendation, university officials said.

In a letter Hodge sent Wednesday to staff and faculty on three campuses, he said he was "appalled and embarrassed" by the incident at the Freedom Center "because it was a place of such cultural and historical significance to our community."

"Such acts are intolerable," he wrote.

He has apologized to Freedom Center officials.

He said Miami will conduct a thorough review of policies and standards "with the intent to significantly update requirements for Greek events and disciplinary procedures for the Greek community."

That could include increasing sanctions for errant sorority or fraternity behavior, said university spokeswoman Claire Wagner.

Right now, the university sets a minimum standard that suspensions can be no less than one semester. Any greater discipline is open-ended and determined on a case-by-case basis.

Wagner said it's doubtful that Miami would ban all Greek activity on campus because six national organizations got their start at the Oxford campus.

That's why Miami is nicknamed the "Mother of Fraternities," she said.

The March 26 event was more like "Greeks Gone Wild," according to a memo the Freedom Center officials sent to Miami.

It detailed the conduct of the sorority and their dates who urinated all over the building, defaced restrooms, intentionally crashed drinks on the dance floor, vomited all over restrooms and at the dinner table, swore at the staff, and tried to steal bottles of booze from the bar.

"Things went from bad to worse as the night progressed," wrote Rhonda Miller, private event coordinator.

At one point, she said she followed a male partygoer who ducked under the stanchions around the Slave Pen exhibit, which was built in the early 1800s and was used by Kentucky slave trader, Capt. John W. Anderson.

"In catching up with him, I found him about to relieve himself on the corner of this priceless and sanctified artifact," Miller wrote.

"I told him to get out of the closed off area and use the restroom on the main floor. A Bensons Catering employee later found the same boy attempting to relieve himself on the freight elevator where Bensons had stored their food."

After a sorority member vomited at the dinner table about a half hour into the 7 p.m. event, Miller said "we realized that seemingly every single sorority sister had illegally brought alcohol into the building in plastic juice or soda bottles and flasks."

The staff collected and dumped 50 to 60 plastic bottles of alcohol and no less than eight flasks throughout the evening, she wrote.

Miller said in her memo that Bensons employees had warned her that the event would be a wild one. They told her the sorority had been banned from BB Riverboats, which Bensons also catered, following an event where several couples were caught having intercourse in the hallways and on the top deck of a boat.

BB Riverboats officials denied that Wednesday, saying the incident never happened and that the sorority was never banned from their facilities.

Freedom Center officials could not be reached for further comment although a voice mail message was left for Paul Bernish, the center's chief communications officer and recipient of Miller's memo. The Enquirer obtained the memo from Miami University.

No one answered the phone at the national Alpha Xi Delta office in Indianapolis.

Yeah , I know.Is this what they do now? I mean I was in a fraternity back in the day. (90's) smile . we had our share of drunken parties. Vomitting , passing out all that . But we never destroyed public property and acted like complete savages. If we destroyed anything it was at our own house (which is stupid in itself) .

And whats this sudden fascination with pooping everywhere but the toilet. That doesnt even sound fun if you were totally blizted ...when everything is funny.

It is the absolutely ridiculous sense of entitlement these kids have. The girls in my house (as much as they liked to have a good time) would no more have thought of doing this sort of thing than they would have tried to fly off the roof of our three-story house.

About the worst that ever happened at one of our formals was that someone (still don't know whether it was a sister or a sister's date) stole a pair of salt and pepper shakers from the venue. And there was hell enough to pay for that.
