The March 24, 2008 online edition of the campus paper has a followup article on hazing, with quotes from an administrator and from an IFC officer:

Apparently the administrator believes the school's current policy doesn't need to be changed, while the IFC president wants to see some changes made. Excerpts from longer article:


Vice President of Student Affairs Linda Clement yesterday called two hazing violations at the university this year isolated incidents and said the university's current hazing policy needs no changes.

"I don't really believe that this is a widely recognized practice," she said. " . . . in general, I really just don't believe any of that sort of thing is going on here."

. . . Under university policy, officials don't investigate hazing unless they are confronted with evidence of it - a policy Clement said is effective enough.

In contrast, Interfraternity Council President Marty Bock yesterday promised the Greek community governing board would bring forth new anti-hazing initiatives next year. However, he echoed Clement's assertion that the hazing incidents are not common. . . .
