Dear all previous posts,

To the original post let me explain myself before I answer your question. My chapter in the past has been known for hazing. We have moved past that to a now non-hazing program. I was hazed, and in a untraditional matter. No for me to answer the question you asked. I do believe hazing is good for pledges to a certain extent. I would not be who I am now if it was not for pledgeship. Now in no way do I condone embarassment, forcing someone to drink or do drugs, or making someone do something they do not want to do. When you push a pledge class to do something together it builds unity.

The way I feel after a non-hazing program as been instituted now is that you can create those same situations without hazing. And the thing you need to remember most is that flat out it is against the law. And to answer your question about state law's most state's describe the law as forcing someone to do something that the whole chapter does not participate in.
