Well, the things done for purely liability reasons, physical endangerment, etc...I understand. Of course, I still think it is ridiculous, but the school must protect itself. What mostly distresses me, are the things done that involve no direct harm, or much liability to the school. For example, signatures. I'm sure there is partly the reason that a brother could make a pledge do _____ for it (which is where personal responsibility comes in, the pledge can just say NO), but more often they concern themselves with the self esteem side of the situation. Why are schools so concerned with making sure students feel so great about themselves. It shouldnt be their job to make sure that all students are self confident and have high self esteem. I simply hate it when schools try to make sure students are included in organizations, especially when they often don't belong.
