The title proposes a question that I ask to those involved in this week’s illegal acts of vandalism. I am the president of Sigma Pi Fraternity International and was appalled to arrive on North Campus to see our sign spraypainted red, and indecent, vulgar chalk writings encompassing our inscriptions. Correct me if I am wrong but the sign we placed on campus had no illustrations of women, nor did it have any suggestive phrases. I have, however, heard comments on the idea that it did say “Barely Legal.” That might also have something to do with it being the eighteenth year of it’s existence, and according to our nation’s laws, when one turns 18 he or she is finally of legal age to vote, enter the service and buy nicotine products. Any references that others make are of their own accord. At the same time, if one is reflecting a certain magazine then they are the ones who have their minds in sordid places.
What baffles me the most is the use of profanity and insults upon our members and guests. It would appear that we are not the ones who are “simply pathetic” (one of the kinder insults strewn at us) but those who did these acts are the ones in the wrong. Those comments were not only offensive to us, but to those who might have seen them as well. It is also plain to see that some of the people are ignorant as to the attraction of ‘Sexy Legs’. Yes, we do have a contest for both men and women. That is something that our assailants forgot to mention. Also, what is wrong with having sexy legs? I see many people who work out on a daily basis in order to create a sexier body; people who even wear shorts in order to show off their ‘sexy legs.’ The idea of having a contest in order to display what they have sculpted is not degrading or demeaning. Take a look at other contest that in one way or another do the same thing: Miss USA, Miss Universe, Mr. Olympia and any and all other competitions that allow one to show off their hard work and dedication.
It is in my opinion that those responsible are ‘pigs’(another insult used against us), for they are the ones who are too lazy to check out this contest. At the same time, keep in mind that if you do not like our competition, then do not participate; it is that simple. As history has a way of proving itself, our competition will succeed with our without you. That is why it is 18 years old; people like it! So I close with the question again; is having Sexy Legs a crime? If so, then someone should notify the authorities of those in the gyms and have them arrest!

p.s. Our Fraternity raised $341 for the Normandy Fire Dept. to send out to New York at this contest.
