Again, amen to Pnguintrax! The situation here is unbelievable--the hazing is not laughable, let's-make-a-memory fun. Most is illegal and/or dangerous. All it's going to take is the media getting hold of one incident or someone getting hurt and this college will be in deep doodoo. The administration is hoping that nothing will happen and keeps putting off bringing in nationals but they're going to have to. Yesterday, one of the locals just elected their group of "hazers" for next year.
If these locals were a positive force, I'd say more power to 'em but they continue to hurt and embarrass.

So, basically you are saying that if the nationals are brought in and the locals are either kicked out or revamped that it will be a totally different scene? You can basically eliminate hazing as can the administration? I would LOVE to see that kind of guarantee on any campus, any campus. Who is to say that if the nationals came on, the campus would improve? There is a chance that it could stay the same or possibly get worse (I know, not very likely, but there is no guarantee on any of it).
Furthermore, if someone like yourself knows so much about the scene and the locals electing groups of "hazers" for the upcoming semesters, why don't more people? People that are in power enough to take legal action if necessary. I kind of take it as the entire campus knows, or at least that's what I gather. I would just think there would be more of a want to do something about it.
I then ask you carnation, have you done anything personally for the situation? Have you contacted administration and officials to help qwell the ongoing hazing and illegal activity of the locals? Have you taken a stance and informed local law enforcement of the the illegal ongoings? I would hope that you did/would/will, because honesly, if you have not, you have done just as much as the administration, which is nothing.
