Hazee shoots, kills hazer in 1914

Interesting story about military school hazing and a hazer's death in 1914.

It reminds me of something I read in Hank Nuwer's "Broken Pledges" about General Douglas MacArthur. In 1901, while MacArthur was a cadet at West Point, he was called to give Congressional testimony about hazing there. A "plebe" had died the year before, and it was believed to be the result of hazing. It was alleged that MacArthur, who was the son of a general was the target of particularly bad hazing. In his testimony though, he denied that he had suffered any severe hazing and claimed that the hazers were all men who had previously left the United States Military Academy.

Hazing has been a longstanding tradition in Military Schools. Sigma Nu was actually founded against some really bad hazers at VMI.

I remember when I was in college, a Delta Sigma Theta pledge gave a big sister a black eye for slapping her. If you knew the big sister, you would have been like ye she deserved it.

In hazing it's not uncommon for the pledges to have their revenge. Some of the stuff my father told me that they did to their pledgemaster in the 60's was pretty incredible.

My chapter doesn't haze at all so I guess we miss out on all that.

Isn't your chapter fairly new and hazing is primarily done just out of tradition.

But yeah we got one of our members who gave us a hard time one time real good.
