The Fight to Change Frat Culture

The Fight to Change Frat Culture

People who believe the fraternity system is broken have been trying every which way to force changes -- something, anything, to stop the parade of injuries, sexual assaults, and deaths that have happened at frat houses.

Guest: Doug Fierberg, attorney and founder of The Fierberg National Law Group.
