Kangaroo Court at Quincy U
 
I noticed something on Wikipedia about Quincy University in Illinois having a school sanctioned hazing activity in the form of a Kangaroo Court all the freshmen are put through...

wtf.

What exactly does this court do?

LOL, did that in 1960 and Frosh wore beenies!

They the jocks picked a Jock Frosh to have his head shaved! They ended up shaving part of mine! All hell broke lose! They never did that after that!:rolleyes:

If this is true, oh wow!:eek:

Yeah well I take interest in it because it's considered hazing AND THE SCHOOL SANCTIONS IT!


Then again....Whittier College has four male "societies" and five female "societies" and a co-ed "society" that haze the CRAP out of their pledges (I'd know, I was in one) and the administration and campus security look the other way because Society alumni are the main donors the school has. The hazing I saw there was much worse than any California hazing I know about (aside from the old Chico stuff)

it's like vigilante justice. a group of citizens (usually a mob) get together and decide someone's fate, judge, jury, and court of appeals all wrapped up in one!

btw, i love your siggie!:p

what is Retro recruitment?

Basically, retro recruitment is just stories of recruitment from some time ago.

OH GOD! The worst is when alumni from the 60s, 70s, 80s come and visit and get all mad because we don't have thirty man pledge classes (the alumni that participate regularly understand the changing times though). "Why don't you guys just throw a rush kegger?! Yeah we used to have the cops shut down 11th street and have parties during rush week!"

WOW. Now I know who caused all the rules and regulations we have to follow to the tee.

Nevermind. I just meant that you asked what "Retro Rush" was, and SWTXBelle answered, and you still didn't seem clear on it. No biggie.:):)
