Phi Kappa Psi Fraternity Vandalized, Students Protest At UVA After Rolling Stone Article

The University of Virginia's Phi Kappa Psi fraternity was targeted for vandalism overnight Thursday following a Rolling Stone article's revelation an alleged gang rape took place at the house two years earlier.
