If Fraternities get too much heat, will colleges end the entire Greek system

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.

LSU is already doing this

They gone.

honestly, you would think there would be no need for university involvement...you would think that at some point parents would stamp that shite out.

Maybe the poor ones.

What is the appeal of hazing, I don’t really understand it. Especially since their very existence is riding on cutting that shite out why would they do it?

We’ll see what happens when real universities take measures

I look forward to the back and forth in this thread between people asking how they'll buy friends if frats disappear vs white men who think they're the biggest victim in modern society.

No. Colleges compete and whether for better or for worse, frats attract students. And very often some of those students come from money that the schools want.
It’s a fine line. Let’s say tomorrow LSU outlaws all frats. Do you think Ole Miss or TAM would follow suit or capitalize on that and push frats to attract that $$?

By the numbers, Greeks are the highest donating class to their alma maters. Discipline is one thing but the system as a whole is and will remain around for a reason.

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.

It wouldn’t surprise me if they started moving off university property. Although the insurance would probably be out of this world.
Posted on 3/12/18 at 10:51 pm to volod
Aww can't buy friends no more :(
Posted on 3/12/18 at 10:53 pm to volod
Universities will probably end the system soon. They'll become underground, off campus things. It's all related to bat shite crazy PC culture.

Go off campus.
Don't be officially associated with a university or college.

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