True. I said that one may not have agreed with what went on during the 'pre-MIP' NPHC era, but if it happened, it happened. We can not go back and change the past.
I have an uncle who is an Omega who crossed in the late 60's and he is *very* proud of the fact that when he was given 'wood' the board broke on his butt. He still brags about it to this day. There was a time that he had the board displayed on the matle of his fireplace and when guests would come over he would proudly tell them the story. Was that type of hazing illegal then? I'm sure it was. But the point is that it was still openly accepted and those who experienced that form of pledging are going to discuss it.

But if someone before 1990 is talking about line names, public greetings, line numbers, etc, that's different.

Depends on who you talk to. Some people also consider this a form of hazing.
