And THAT is the problem. Fraternities rose in popularity in a time of war, so of course that is how their customs were made. And besides, why the frick would you want drunk idiots treating younger drunk idiots like they are new military recruits? What good does making them drink until they get sick, burning them with irons, beating them with bats, or stripping them naked and humiliating them do?

It’s shared stress, and it creates real bonds within the pledge class. It also gives them a sense of sacrifice, I endured this to become a brother, so they value being a brother more.
That’s why hazing persists.
The younger chapters are probably more dangerous in this regard. They have fewer traditions, and more to prove. So they’ll engage in far more dangerous behavior.
