Others may disagree with me, but I didn't think this was serious hazing.

The way the story led in with her seeing the blindfolded girls I thought it was a rape story not your run of the mill fun times in college. Trust me they'll go hoggwild and blow it waaaay out of proportion at UCONN, it'll put a stop to what little fun left at that school

Not saying I endorse hazing, but I've heard stories that are MUCH worse.

Of course they're hiring a lawyer.

Holt said UConn officials asked to meet with her Monday but she said her parents advised her to wait until the family has hired an attorney. She said members of the fraternity and sorority also asked to meet with her. Members of both organizations could not immediately be reached for comment late Saturday.
The family would be stupid not to hire a lawyer since the school (the school's attorney and risk management) requested to meet with her.

Holt, 21, said members of the fraternity and sorority told her, another woman and the three blindfolded women to "lay on the floor and sizzle like bacon." She said they were told to jump up and down, grabbing their ankles, while pledging their love for their sorority. Throughout the orders, women were told to drink beer and shots of alcohol, Holt said.
Holt said she was not blindfolded and, although it was dark in the room, she said she could see "multiple" people there. She said one woman was ordered to do push-ups. Another with a blindfold on had a shot of alcohol poured in her mouth, she said.
Holt said she was later led to another room where she drank small bottles of vodka and wine. She said she last remembered being led to a room where people were playing the drinking game, "beer pong." She said she was pushed to play the game as well and then blanked out.
"When you lose in beer pong, you have to drink quite a bit," Holt said.

That sounds like an awesome time. There goes the fun for that school, and the sorority president will probably be charged for it.

I know right?
I could be wrong, but I've heard that out of all the groups, white sororities are actually the mildest when it comes to hazing. Maybe by those standards, this is extreme behavior?

Unless the pledges were under 21, it doesn't even sound like anything illegal happened.

If she doesnt want the free alcohol Ill take it.

She transferred from hawaii to uconn? She's obviously an idiot.

Sounds like a night off from being a pledge.

Hazing is illegal.
Blindfolding them constitutes as hazing.
Forcing them to drink is hazing.
Forcing the calisthenics is hazing.
I don't agree with it, but the laws are written that even the littlest thing is now considered hazing.
The days of the fraternities of old are extremely limited.

My problem is was any of this actually forced. It seems they could have left at anytime.

UConn's anti-hazing policy, according to the school's website, defines hazing as "an act which endangers the mental or physical health or safety of a student, or which destroys or removes public or private property for the purpose of initiation, admission into, affiliation with, or as a condition for continued membership in a group or organization."
The policy says the "express or implied consent of the victim will not be a defense. Apathy or acquiescence in the presence of hazing are not neutral acts; they are violations of this rule."
