If you are pledging, keep it to yourself! You should know that anyway. Man, when I think of some of the things I have not ever seen or heard or been e-mailed about and the trouble it might have hypothetically gotten some people in with their hypothetical DOP's/MOP's (which of course do not exist anymore) I shudder to think about the position they would have been in had that really occurred (namely, ass up)!

Speaking on behalf of billy, (which he has not authorized me to do) and knowing he is a newly initiated member of a fraternity, I assume he was speaking of a forum so that new members could speak of their experiences, feelings and such.
there are many differences between the "new member" processes between the NPC/NIC/NPHC groups. For most all NIC/NPC groups, its a
VERY public and celebrated process. Hell, with my campus, we put big posters in the quad and lecture hall buildings (where all the freshman kick it - largest lecture halls are there) with our new members names on it. Kinda braggin if you will. its a competition to show off how many new members you got and who they are.
I dont see the creation of a new forum as an opportunity for negativity and hazing allegations. First, those fools are already here. Two, they already post crap in Glife and Cchat.
Idea: Lets use this thread as an opportunity. Ivy, would you please maybe educate us on the diffeences between our systems? or at least why does discression seem to be so important when rushing/affilliating an NPHC group? I am interested. Something I dont know about greek life! Thanks for your help in advance.
