Might bump this in the morning.


I personally don't want fraternities to die out, but if too many hazing incidents occur some places will simply end the system at the public university level.

And what about sororities. Will they remain immune. I've heard some terrible stories about sorority row, yet they don't get the public backlash.


I was just thinking about this the other day. Unrelated, but watching "Black Mirror" has me thinking a lot about how technology has reshaped and will continue to reshape almost every facet of life.

One of the traditional long-term values of fraternities has been networking. And though traditional networking is still very important, I could see that giving way to more virtual connections in the near future. Prospective employers will be learning more about us from our online footprints than they will from our college associations in no time.

Put “sorority hazing” in the Google machine you get a lot...
It’s Cosmopolitan, but frick it I did the research...

-One girl was blindfolded, ordered to drink 64oz of spiked punch, do vodka shots simultaneously, and pushed out of a car. She woke up in the hospital, with bruises, broken teeth, and a BAC .001 from a coma.

quote:

Pledges were made to strip naked, sit on newspaper and watch lesbian porn. If the newspaper had any wet spots, they were out. The one with the biggest stain had to eat the paper.

quote:

At Montclair, pledges were forced to strip naked, sit on a running dryer, while the sisters used a sharpie to circle the jiggly fat

quote:

Others were forced to do calisthenics on the beach for hours and forced to walk backwards in the water. One pledge got taken back by a wave. When another pledge tried to save her, they both drowned.
