I had a great Greek experience, so I would want my kids to be Greek as well. But this man didn't like his Greek experience - so HE will think being non-Greek is better.

In one breath you defend hazing - the next moment you're shown an example of how unhappy and (as you call it) disloyal hazing makes members, and you don't see the disconnect? Hazing = unhappy Greeks! The most anti-Greek people I know are not those who were GDIs but those who were hazed in college. They swear they will never let their children go Greek, and they follow up to make sure their kids don't.

Some people who were hazed end up fanatically devoted like you (and I don't mean fanatic in a bad way) and some end up miserable. Some people who aren't hazed end up dropping out or whatever, but they are almost never anti-Greek. That's one big argument against hazing right there.

And, of course, the best arguments are that it's illegal, that every IFC and NPC group has a policy against it, that every university has a policy against it, and that it gives the media something to slam us with.
