I hope A&M will never do this to greek life.
A&M doesn't seem to like greek life... I don't see them doing anything like this to try to improve it.... I actually think they would get rid of it if they could. (personal opinion)

This is something that I found strange in one report....

· Each member is required to join at least one co-curricular organization in order to
broaden the sisters’ experiences.

Wouldn't alot of schools consider it hazing to tell a member that they HAVE to join another organization??? I think joining an org just because is stupid... You should join something because you WANT to not because you'll get in trouble with your chapter if you don't. Besides, what if someone is in such a demanding major that they just don't have the time to devote to yet another org? Maybe I'm overreacting, but that seems dumb to me.

And as for study hours....

I do remember hearing that some orgs consider that hazing and can't do it... But my ADPi chapter had mandatory study hours when I was in school. It went by your last semester's GPA.. For example if you got a 2.5, you had to do X amount of hours. The higher your GPA, the fewer hours you had to do. And if you got something like over a 3.8, you didn't have to do any at all.

BUT, I will also say that I don't remember ever really getting anything done during study hours... You can't put that many sisters in a room and actually expect them to get studying done- it was social hour.

Edited for my TERRIBLE grammar mistakes.
