The Hatchet’s editorial board commends the University for removing townhouse fines and lowering threshold requirements.

Last month, Senior Vice President for Student and Academic Support Services Robert Chernak announced that the University would forgive the fines issued to Greek-letter organizations for failing to meet summer housing quotas. This week, senior administrators announced that the quotas themselves would be lowered for future summers. These are commendable University efforts to alleviate student concerns and foster a better line of communication with the Greek-letter community.
