1) Are culture and climate differences at institutions causing problems within our fraternities/sororities?
2) Do practices such as challenging another chapter, trading wood, or "pari snatching" acceptable or necessary?
3) IS IT JUST JUVENILE???
pledge process beefs happen on the graduate level as well, so i hear. and i think EVERY chapter, undergrad or grad/alumni, have fiscal problems

i've seen chapters and particular lines of chapters make up their own grips/calls. i had to squash that ish with my neos. i dont find it cute.

i've never been a fan of trading wood - i mean, there are other ways to prove that youre bout it. how bout you go pay some dues and be bout it?

never heard of "pari snatching" why would anyone do that? aside from it being "inappropriate"?

as for it being juvenile, i think most of these issues are legitimate, its the way members go about it that's juvenile.
