The Dartmouth

I am writing to inform you of my intent to de-pledge Beta Alpha Omega fraternity. I can no longer be part of an institution that has contributed to so much physical and emotional harm, including death. I do not take this decision lightly and it was a difficult one for me to make, but I know that it is the correct decision.
