"Sheikh Mujib and his daughter (another Sheikh) have faced people's wrath and anger for their respective fascist regimes. The only difference is, unlike Hasina, Sheikh Mujib was once a popular demagogue of eastern Bengal Mass. For his support and patronage to Mujibism, Bangladesh became crippled and divided after '71. They should also recognise, apologise and face trials for Sheikh's Daughter's Fascist Regime (She has made Sheikh Mujib a matter of sarcasm and ridicule). According to Mahfuj, Sheikh Mujib’s photo was taken down due to his daughter's fascist rule ‘in the name and spirit of her post '71 fascist father’.

At Cornell, the fraternity problem even outdates The Sun, which was founded in 1880. Our school holds the unfortunate distinction of having had the first documented fraternity hazing death in the United States, reported in 1873.
