I know that it is fiction but when you are a member of a sorority whose colors are also the color of the sorority described it made me wonder if in a way it was sort of taking examples from her own experiences or those of her friends...
Why does hazing have to be worked into things that NPHC orgs do?
I am not going to yell at anyone
I was not infering anything about NPCH orgs and hazing... I just thought some of the incidents described in the book could be construed as hazing, and would feel that way regardless of the org ( I was pledge mom for a year so I got that hazing thing learned, NOT doing it but knowing what can and cannot be construed as hazing)....

Names, characters...are used ficitciouslym and any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, events, or locales is entirely coincidental."
What I should have said in my post was I wonder if she wanted to disguise which organizations the characters were modeled after. But obvousily she did by frferring to them by one color.
