i thought it was pretty obvious that i wanted ideas b/c i want to reform pledging a little bit. try and make it less hazing as much as possible while still making it challenging enough so it's still exclusive.
it is possible for my chapter to get closed due to hazing. however, it is about as likely as someone in college getting busted for smoking weed. the chances are just so low and the punishments so weak that this is why hazing still exists. obviously the punishments that are given aren't enough to deter students from hazing or else we wouln't be reading about hazing incidents all the time would we?
and i still don't understand how by doing community service you're showing brotherhood/sisterhood. is it becuz ur all there that you're showing unity by volunteering your time? i see clubs do that all the time. is that really what brotherhood is to you? volunteering to the community? so i guess you can say you love your fraternity brother b/c he served popcorn with you at a sport event huh? would you feel that way if you were on a battlefield with him?
now i might have a different sense of brotherhood here but i don't believe brothers are made by doing things that anyone can do. you take your fraternity brothers and i'll take mine and if we go to war we'll see whose gonna leave who behind huh? now i understand you guys hate talking about the military but i believe military builds true bonds b/c you have to trust people with your lives. would you trust someone who just had to put in his time with you? i don't think so.
